Clipboard texts are nice, but I only need them for Outlook, which is why I discovered a great shareware program with the strange name “ReplyButler” for me. It’s basically boilerplate textmodules on steroids. Multilingual, icons, auto-search, treeview and other stuff. However, it’s not freeware like ClipGuru. :’(

Thanks for the nice review! While blogging I make a large (really large!) use of the clipboard and sometimes when I mess things up I always use it to see what picture i used last. Having something more professional like ClipGuru can be really something useful! Thanks again!

Clippy is an extremely handy tool to convert text from the clipboard, based on user defined criteria. Common uses include cleaning up email forwards by getting rid of the > symbols. However, there are many other options and uses that allow you to trim white space, remove duplicate lines, strip HTML and much more from your clipboard text input.

I’m somewhat tempted to download this, however, I think my regular clipboard will suffice for the moment.

I think this is a useful tool that’ll make things easier, especially if you have to deal with lots of images when doing your documents and stuff.

I think I’m gonna try this product out. Hope it really helps me with my documents since I deal with plenty of images and texts when preparing my office files.
