Another useful feature of PTHPasteboard...
Authored by: jolinwarren on Jan 20, '03 11:05:21AM

Another great feature of PTHPasteboard is that it will save the contents of your clipboards between restarts, logouts, etc. So if you've just restarted, you have access to all of the same historical clipboards as you would without the restart. What a great feature!

I have also found the PTHClock to be absolutely indispensable and a complete replacement for Apple's menu bar clock. You can have the date and time in any format you want visible at once, and a nice sheet-popping calendar can be displayed based on your preferences. The company comes out with some nice freeware (or donationware).

CopyPaste better than PTHPasteboard...

I use CopyPaste (in both 9 and X) which I find superior to PTHP

CopyPaste better...for what??
Authored by: Felix on Jan 21, '03 12:22:19AM

CopyPaste certainly has additional features like text scrub (cleans up text for posting into e-mail, documents, etc.) but if all you need is a great multiple pasteboard copy buffer (with other features noted above) then look no further than PTHPasteboard. It has been around since OS X was first released and I have used it continuously from that infamous Saturday forward. I was a registered OS 9 CopyPaste user but the company screwed around so long getting an OS X version out the door that I found adequate work-arounds and then never bothered to upgrade when the native version was finally released. Frankly, it would be difficult to imagine Mac life without this little app.

How are you able to save your contents thru restarts? I don't see that in prefs or anywhere else.

thanks!

There's a "Save Buffers" option in the preferences panel...
