Last In First Out Multi Clipboard
#1
One thing I have always wanted in windows was a LIFO clipboard. Can I program QM to do this? Anyone have any ideas? Each successive copy would push the previous copy down in the queue and perhaps using multiple presses of the V key to tunnel down into the clipboard queue for extraction would be good. A modifier key could perhaps bring up a dialog with the contents of the text queue or an icon (to signify pics). Obviously a limit of 8-10 copies would be needed.

Any ideas are appreciated. Idea

well i use yankee clipper but i suppose you could use use the str function to load the clipboard into a variable but im not sure how you would handle it if the clipboard entry had "return" characters.

QM handles binary strings in str varibles. You just have to be carefull what manipulation functions you use. Most do not handle binary.

I also would choose a specialized application. Too much work would be to create it in QM, because there are so many clipboard formats.

This is simplest multilevel clipboard:

Function MultiClipCopy, trigger Ctrl+Shift+C
Code:
Copy      Help
ARRAY(str)+ g_mca
str& s=g_mca[g_mca.redim(-1)]
s.getsel

Function MultiClipPaste, trigger Ctrl+Shift+V
Code:
Copy      Help
ARRAY(str)+ g_mca
int i=g_mca.len-1
if(i<0) ret
str& s=g_mca[i]
s.setsel
g_mca.redim(i)
