Clipboard Help+Spell developing by Mouser since 2005
is professional quality, all-purpose, clipboard extender with clip
history and note organizing. This tool has as well functions for
copying and pasting into and out of other apps and many options.
In my opinion (written after a short time usage) this is handy and
working efficiently software. Now is available portable version 2.23,
suitable for Windows 2k/XP/Vista/Win7/Win8. Freeware for personal use.

Clipboard Help And Spell (CH&S) appears to be a powerful clipboard manager, exhibiting a rather broad set of features and lots of configurability.

My findings:
  • If you download the portable package, you can copy the 'ConfigDir_Default.ini' present inside CH&S folder to 'ConfigDir.ini', edit it to change its CONFIGDIR key to something like 'CONFIGDIR=.\Conf' and then move every sub-folder there (except 'Tools' and 'Sounds'), as well as every other INI file, to get a less cluttered program folder;
  • CH&S (re)creates a 'DonationCoder' folder in %APPDATA% everytime it runs, so it is not entirely stealth;
  • Also, 'Start with Windows' and 'Check for updates on startup' options were activated by default and had to be unchecked in CH&S "Options" dialog (located in "Startup and Tray");
  • Interface panels can easily be undocked and made floatable (just drag them) but after that I found no way to dock them again (plus, I had to manually reactivate saved interface layouts);
  • Memory consumption on Windows XP Pro SP3 was a moderate 15 MB -- but the latest Clipdiary (my personal favorite), for instance, requires less than 4 MB...
All in all, CH&S is an interesting entry for the Clipboard Tools category, but some quirks remain to be ironed out.
