Grake Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 http://acmgr.sourceforge.net/It does everything, except auto-highlight. Check back in a few days, might implement auto-highlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[deXter] Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Thanks colore!I've been intending to do this a long time ago but I completely forgot about it. Thanks for the inspiration!So without much ado, I present:Drag2Copy v1.0Drag2Copy (D2C) is an additional clipboard for windows with a difference - to copy text, all you need to do is select the text you want to copy (by dragging the mouse). To paste the text, press the Paste key (default: Ctrl+Alt+V). If you accidentally selected some text and thought you lost your previous selection, don't worry - just press the Undo key (default: Ctrl+Alt+Z) and you'll get back your old clipboard!Download (210 KB) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[deXter] Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I used AutoHotkey. It's really quite easy to make such programs in AHK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
