ClipMate

All The Clipboard You Need!

ClipMate

We've been frustrated by the limitations of the Windows clipboard for the last 13 years. Until just recently, that is, when we discovered ClipMate. ClipMate does everything we've ever wanted the Windows clipboard to do, not to mention a few other things we hadn't even thought of.

What's wrong with the Windows clipboard? It only holds one item. It pastes formatting when and where we don't want it. Let's face it -- it's nowhere near as useful as it really should be, especially considering how often we all use it.

ClipMate fixes all the deficiencies of the Windows built-in clipboard. For starters, it allows for multiple items and strips out RTF and newlines. But Clipmate also gives us other character cleanup, clip editing, and allows us to save the source of each clip. Throw in a screenshot tool (with and without the cursor), autotext, encryption, search.... ClipMate is an amazingly powerful, useful, and feature-rich program.

ClipMate gives you:

  • As many items as you want on your clipboard - no more losing what you've copied, or having to flip back and forth (and back and forth and back and forth) between windows to get multiple graphics or lines of text.
  • An easy way to strip out rich text, linebreaks, >s and other characters you don't want.
  • A way to paste any clip as text-only.
  • A powerful screenshot tool.
  • A powerful autotext tool - no more having to type the same text over and over.
  • A way to save, organize and back up clips. No more adding text to files, or sending yourself emails of pieces of information you don't need long-term, but can't quite lose. URLs, purchase confirmations, phone numbers and much more. No more temporary files that you forget to erase - ClipMate keeps and even backs up your clips.
  • Additional power-user features, including the ability to configure which format of clip is pasted by default into any program, and an amazing "Exploding PowerPaste" function that automatically divides delimited text into fields and pastes them into spreadsheets or databases.

Who Needs ClipMate?
We can't image anyone who doesn't! If you've ever:

  • Spent too much time going back and forth between windows, copying and pasting one graphic or piece of text at a time.
  • Pasted text into your text editor, just to get rid of the RTF formatting or Excel "intelligence" before pasting it where you wanted it.
  • Tried "drawing" a cursor on a screenshot.
  • Spent time manually removing linebreaks from copied text.
  • Lost some text you really wanted, by copying something over it on your clipboard.
  • Accidentally shut your browser window or tab, and lost the page you were reading.
  • Had to open a graphics editor just to flip or rotate an image, or a text editor just to check some spelling.
  • Bookmarked a webpage just so you'd be able to find it again the next day (and ended up with hundreds, if not thousands, of bookmarks).
  • Had to restart a flash demo dozens of times to capture and save all the screenshots you needed from it.
  • Tried to figure out how to make keyboard shortcuts for "Paste Plain Text" in Word and Excel.
  • Tried to remember and type something just because it was faster than using the clipboard.

Real Users Say:

  • “ClipMate is a MUST on my computer. I recommend it for anyone using a computer. ”- Kathy Henderson - Marketing Consultant, Freelance Writer & Editor
  • “I have been using ClipMate since about 1995 and I would not be without it. The time it has saved me cannot be measured.”- Michael Webb, WebbWorx Ltd.
  • “I recently had to change from one FTP client program to another. With about 50 entries in the old program I did not look forward to it. ClipMate 6.3 was my "typist in a box" and saved me a ton of time and effort!”- Jim Sewell, Jim Sewell Computing Solutions
  • “Initially, I didn't think I needed Clipmate - now I can't work without it.”- Rob Hamilton
  • “I started working with Clipmate 3 around 12 years ago, since then it has always been the first MUST on every new computer or Windows version through the years.”- Gert Heimbold, technical documentation expert
  • “One of the most useful programs I have; ideal for managing frequently used information and for making sure you don't lose track of snippets you're collecting.”- Mary Branscombe, technology journalist

    I love ClipMate! I've been using it for years, and I can't imagine how I would manage without it.

    Great program that does exactly what it says it does and more. I especially like the ability to have the program handle information copied to the clipboard in different ways depending on the program that it was copied from. For example, I could have it store any clips from my text editor in a different folder than any clips from mIRC.

    Citra FX is a stinker; Clipmate is great!

    People wonder how I get so much done - ClipMate is one of the reasons.

    As a long-time registered user of ClipMate, I can attest to the fact that it is one of the most useful utilities I've ever installed. It's invaluable at home and at work. I've also got the portable version on my USB flash drive. I've never regretted paying full price. Don't pass up the chance to get this at a great discount.

    I bought ClipMate over five years ago and have used it daily ever since.



    If I were only allowed one utility on a Desert Island ClipMate would be the one.
