Registers do not add/remove from the clipboard history, they are a place to store text that won't be affected by clipboard history.Ĭlipboard_manager_copy_to_register (there are a ton, e.g. This was mostly useful for development, but you might find it beneficial as well. Shows the clipboard history in an output panel, and points to the current clipboard item. Shows the clipboard history in an quick panel so you can pick an entry from the history, also shows the “current selected item” in an output panel.Ĭlipboard_manager_show ( super+ctrl+shift+v, /) The content will appear as a status message and in a panel.Ĭlipboard_manager_choose_and_paste ( super+ctrl+alt+v) Goes to the previous entry in the history, but doesn't paste. The content will appear as a status message and in a panel.Ĭlipboard_manager_previous ( super+pagedown aka super+fn+down) Goes to the next entry in the history, but doesn't paste. Goes to the previous entry in the history and pastes it.Ĭlipboard_manager_next ( super+pageup aka super+fn+up) Goes to the next entry in the history and pastes it.Ĭlipboard_manager_previous_and_paste ( super+shift+v) Options: indent (default: False): Determines whether to use the paste or paste_and_indent built-in command.Ĭlipboard_manager_next_and_paste ( super+alt+v) clipboard_manager_choose_and_paste also has this feature (thanks to for this idea!) CommandsĬlipboard_manager_paste: Self Explanatory. If you bind clipboard_manager_next and clipboard_manager_previous, these commands will show you the current clipboard selection in a panel at the bottom of the screen. First you need to override the cut/copy/paste commands, so that the pasteboard entries can be stored in history: Open Preferences > Key Bindings and copy the key bindings from Example.sublime-keymap that you want to use.
CLIPBOARD APP INSTALL
Install keymaps for the commands (see Example.sublime-keymap for my preferred keys).Using Package Control, install “Clipboard Manager”.TheseĬommands delegate to the sublime text built in commands, but also add the copied text to its internal history. To assign clipboard_manager_copy to ctrl/super+c and clipboard_manager_cut to ctrl/super+x. Most importantly: Clipboard Manager must be registered to receive the copy and cut commands, so be sure I also want to give a shoutout to user mg979 for sharing a bunch of awesome new features he added to this plugin! We didn't collaborate on a pull request, but I did implement some of his ideas that I liked, namely the “show current clipboard” with syntax highlighting. Originally written by AJ Palkovic ( ajpalkovic), modified by Martin Aspeli ( optilude), and further (heavily) modified and packaged for Package Control by Colin T.A. Because I'm always nervous that ClipMenu will break, I hope this review will motivate Cop圜lip developers to step up and 'copy' the versatility of ClipMenu because a capable clipboard manager is an essential operating feature for me (and I think anyone that bothers to use it a while will surely then be spoiled).A version of the Sublime Text plugin at that makes for TextMate-like clipboard history. Finally, that amazing little app hasn't been updated since 2014 but still works flawlessly up thru at least Catalina (I haven't upgraded to Big Sur but expect it will continue working well).

CLIPBOARD APP PLUS
I have Copy Clip and you don't! Me stupid? What took YOU so long to finally get here?Ĭop圜lip functions fine as a basic clipboard manager BUT it still doesn't work as well as the similar free ClipMenu app which has very useful "Snippets", "Shortcuts" and "Actions" (all very useful but the user doesn't have to bother because they don't complicate the interface or basic usability) plus configuration of almost everything imaginable, from the menu bar icon choice to what types of files may be clipped to the quantity of clipped items stored to subfolders on the menu etc etc.

And for those who are thinking, "How stupidi of that guy to not have a back up of those 29 pages!!", consder the following. I mean if you're readng this and you do not yet have copy clip installled, please do it now. My astoundment stems from my totally forgetting about thse college days when in a matter of seconds, a twety-nine page research paper could be gone with no chance of retrieval all because I copied to clipboard, deleted one graphic from the paper, accidentally copied a second graphic to the clipboard and POOF!! - 29 pages gone forever. It is like I no longer write, create or design in fear of losing stuff. No kidding! My copy clip is set to temember the last 80 items I copied to clipboard. I was simply astounded when I was asked to do a review for Copy Clip! The invitation took me back to a time "pre- CC" when I didn't have the ability to see any history of my clipboard, let alone the power to go back and paste a clipboard item that I copied to the clipboard but have copied 79 items since.
