Andrew Lee on 1 Jun 2024

MultiClipBoardSlots allows you to extend the Clipboard for up to 10 clipboard storage slots to easily insert text, images and other objects between the programs via freely selectable Windows shortcut. The program doesn't lose the contents of the Clipboard Slots because the default Clipboard will be overwritten by other programs.

The keyboard shortcuts for the Clipboard Memory Slots are predefined, but always can be individually adjusted.

Sorry but this is not for me, though I like some other titles from this designer.

I have to remember what text is in what clipboardslot and with what hotkey I have to copy paste. I prefer a conventional clipboard tool like Ethervane Echo

smaragdus on 2016-11-22 19:52

I concur with Ennovy, I have no use for this tool either, I have tested most of the utilities by SoftwareOK and I like and use many of them, MultiClipBoardSlots is the first one I find to be rather awkward.

MIKLO on 2018-01-18 09:45

As others have said I use and like other titles the designer has made, but sorry this is to much to remember where and what I entered. It really is a good idea just doesn't work 4me, thanks for the work you have done it is appreciated very much.

Nice little player. The website has a page with plugins, but it's slightly misleading. The "Qmmp Plugin Pack" download directs to the player itself, and the others require building from source/installed dependencies.

Realist on 2016-10-06 16:25

Why do we another music player and that too which looks like WinAMP?

MIKLO on 2017-01-15 17:15

@Realist, I believe the more we have the better they will all get or they go away, after all competition makes the world go round. I would agree if all are the exact same then it is a waste, but coders usually try and add something more useful that the last version doesn't have. Just my thoughts. :)

RIOT (Radical Image Optimization Tool) v2024.1

Andrew Lee on 26 Jan 2024
  • 12MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 23 Jan 2024
  • Suggested by ashghost

RIOT (###0###R###1###adical ###0###I###1###mage ###0###O###1###ptimization ###0###T###1###ool) presents a before-and-after image compression view that allows you to reduce file size of an image into JPG, PNG, or GIF format. Includes optional metadata removal, batch operations, compression to a target file size, transparency options, and other common editing functions (flip, rotate, zoom, pan). Notable versus similar software in the ability to gradually reduce the available colors one-by-one (7, 8, 9, 10...), not just milestones of 16, 32, 64 etc.

The program is also available as a plugin for XnView, GIMP, or Irfanview (see website).

Functional in Linux using ###8###Wine###9###. Many of the official entries here on PortableFreeware have used RIOT for compression. Note that the installer version of this program is considered adware.

webfork: Because it's their preferred portable build. Not everyone will need the full package. The lite / portable build should be sufficient for people building a website for testing locally and on the go.

olliebean on 2018-10-19 14:51

Just for clarification, is the full version portable? Because the only version labelled "portable" at the download link appears to be the lite version, without FTP or Mail.

Pax on 2019-05-17 03:49

Note: The description should replace Oracle's MySQL with the community-based fork: MariaDB.
