Make the most of Butler's custom pasteboards
Authored by: rspress on Feb 26, '07 05:27:57PM

I find iClip 4 much more powerful. Not only does it have sections for bits of text, urls, pictures, etc. that you often use and that you can keep in the clipboard until you erase it but every time you copy something it is put into the clipboard recorder. The clipboard recorder keeps its contents between power-offs. Best of all it need little attention from me, the user, to do its thing. Plus it stays out of site until needed.

In fact it has become so useful I feel like an idiot for not using it before. I discovered this and several other apps I did not know about during the MacAppADay giveaway. I think that giveaway was great from introducing little know apps to more users. I hope they do it again soon.

Make the most of Butler's custom pasteboards

I found PTHPasteboard Pro to be much more efficient in this regard. Up to 100 regular pasteboards (and easy to scroll!), plus additional pasteboards with the constant content (and I can assign shortcut for each custom pasteboard), plus filters for pasting text as plain text or with all kinds of effects and/or additions. I can even paste 4 lines of text as 4 numbered or bulletted lines with surrounding HTML code to turn these lines into bullets! Endless possibilites.
