Copy and Paste

Just Copy and Paste - Your Time Is Too Preecious to Waste

A Useful Tool That Makes Boring and Time-Consuming Retyping Your Past
Softvoile announces today the release of Flashpaste, version 3.6. Flashpaste
is a powerful, easily customizable and practical tool to enter frequently used
text. The more the amount of your writing is, the more acute becomes the
problem of inevitable time-loss associated with typing the same phrases over
and over. If we take the professional sphere, any coder or developer will
readily agree that his product could hit the mahket much faster if only there
was a way to avoid time-consuming retyping. As for home usage - just think of
all those numerous letters, usually full of standard phrases. Typing them
every time can drive you crazy. Flashpaste is a wonderful solution to this
problem. The phrases, retyping of which could cause you a headache before, are
now entered only once for future unlimited pasting. The very moment you start
using Flashpaste your productivity shoots up.

Flashpaste is not only extremely useful; it is also extremely easy to use. All
you need is, first, enter the necessary text, frequently used addresses,
e-mail text blocks, HTML codes, words, phrases and paragraphs, and then
specify the cover string that will represent this text in the Flashpaste popup
list. After this is completed, any time you need to enter your pre-defined
phrase, you just press the hot key (you specify it in the program dialog) and
select the necessary line from the popup list. To select the line you can also
type its first symbols or simply give it a mouse click. Flashpaste can also be
used to create macros, strings that are either replaced or processed by an
application. Using macros allows you to paste the current time and date,
insert the commands emulating pressing the Tab or Enter keys, and more. This
is really powerful, because the macros form their content at the moment of
usage (the moment of copying to clipboard), so they always provide up-to-date
information on time, date, etc. Besides, the program conveniently records your
clipboard history. Unlike the standard Windows clipboard, Flashpaste is not
limited to the last copied text segment, it helpfully records several recently
copied words, numbers and phrases for you to reuse them in future any time you
need. This feature saves a lot of your precious time by allowing you to refer
to the text fragments saved in your clipboard history instead of repeatedly
copying and pasting them, which makes it a real must-have for software
developers and writers.

The new version of Flashpaste features several useful improvements. Now you
can paste your text with the use of Hot Keys (either a number from 0 to 9, or
a letter from the first keyboard line, "q" to "p"). Any current branch will
show these Hot Keys as labels in front of its first 20 strings. To select a
string you simply have to press the hot key associated with it. There is also
available the Ctrl-"hot key" combination to immediately paste the string you
need. This makes the process of pasting with Flashpaste even faster. The
feature is not mandatory and you can disable it any moment by selecting "Don't
use" option for Hot Kay labels at the "Hot Key Labels" page in Flashpaste
options. With F3 Hot Key in the String Selection Dialog Box you can switch
between 'Show hot key labels', 'no hot key labels' or 'show hot keys over main
icons' modes. There has also been added a command line feature to support
running Flashpaste from USB drive without installation. And finally, today the
much requested backup feature is provided and you can be sure no vital data
that you keep in Flashpaste files is lost.
