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.
