InsideClipboard v1.25 Updated

Andrew Lee on 31 Mar 2024
  • 65KB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 26 Mar 2024
  • Suggested by JohnW

InsideClipboard displays the binary content of all formats that are currently stored in the clipboard, allowing you to save the content of specific format into a binary file. This is helpful because although something copied or cut from an application can be in many different formats, Windows' main clipboard application only displays text or bitmaps. InsideClipboard can display many more stored formats.

What's new?
  • Added 'Put Icon On Tray' option.
  • Added 'No Refresh For Excel' option. When this option is turned on, InsideClipboard doesn't refresh when you copy data in Excel (Some copy actions cause an error in Excel if InsideClipboard tries to extract the data from clipboard).

Agree with Crid. Might have had some issues initially, but I use it regularly each day without issues. Its such a timesaver. And having the shortcut to pop up the menu is superb. Not seen any other clipboard utlities come close to this one.

hamasaki on 2013-07-29 12:41

I think Arsclip makes all other clipboard utilities redundant, its that good. Could have a better name though.

One does not need the BAT file ("ClipAngelPortable.bat") to start ClipAngel in portable mode, just run the EXE with this parameter- "ClipAngel.exe /p".

The name of the program is not Clip Angel but ClipAngel as it can be seen in program's main window and in "About" window.

Program's icon does not imply an angel but an alien.

tormozit on 2017-05-14 16:46

@smaragdus
Yes, "ClipAngel" is more correct than "Clip Angel". Over time, I will try to replace "Clip Angel" with "ClipAngel" everywhere I can.

kiwichick888 on 2022-10-20 04:41

The sourceforge page says portability can also be achieved by the "presence of file PortableMode.txt".

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.

under Option - Quick paste. There you can change to another theme which comes with the program.
However to create your own looks/theme, you can go to the folder Ditto\Themes\ You'll find some xml files. Each of them is 1 theme. In there you can change the value and select which colars. You'll need to play a bit around till it looks they way you want it to be. Give it a new xml name and then in the Ditto program select this one as Theme as described above.

lintalist on 2015-10-05 22:48

I like(d) CLCL a lot, but on Windows 8/64bit it has a bug for me. I'd set it up to show 19 items in the menu so that the letter 't' is the shortcut for templates menu, unfortunately it doesn't properly register the hotkey of the CLCL program I think because when I press alt-t in any program it always pops up an empty template menu (from CLCL) which shouldn't happen because it not a global hotkey.
Good alternative I found was ArsClip - http://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=734 - and set it up as CLCL as close a possible. Still like CLCL though.

zorro on 2019-12-16 05:06

Unfortunately the new version 2.10 is not stealth any more - it creates a folder "CLCL" with settings and history in AppData. I tried entering the program path for "WorkDir" in the "general.ini", but the folder is still created. Reverting to version 1.12...

I switched to this from ArsClip about five years ago and love it.

If you are running a PALM the author wrote a neat Breakout style game. The Prison - Breakout-style game featuring a wide assortment of power-ups, special bricks, and other oddities. Also includes a board editor. Free software, released under the GNU GPL.

It's on the same download page as QClip.

For the sake of clarity, it should be noted ClipTrap isn't really a clipboard manager -- it's more like a clipboard drop basket, but it does what it says on the label... :)

Version 1.0.7's improved line endings is great for Notepad users!
Neat tool - No learning curve or configuration to confuse the issue.
When you're juggling complex texts and don't want a fussy util to distract you
this simply accumulates the text 'seen' in the clipboard after every c etc

not portable on 2009-06-18 11:13

I can attest to what Chlind said.

ClipX is not portable at all (at least if you use the sticky plugin).

It would run without any apparent problem but it didn't continue to capture new clips.

Sadly, the sticky plugin is a must have for me (I think it should be built-in instead of a plugin)

Nick on 2010-03-26 15:45

ClipX pastes text in the beginning of the current window, not in the place where cursor is. At least when it's called with a hotkey. This feature make the application useless. It's very sad...
