Very, very sad day :( (Clipboard apps)

Neal - I got nothing on the clip program - but if you explain what it does I might be able to find something.

More importantly - glad your not seriously hurt. I have been forced to lay em over more than once - and its never felt good.

No, no, it's okay... really... I jus' got somethin' in my eye.

Reeeeeally would've preferred an opening phrase other than "last week I was hit by a car."

Seriously, glad you're okay and got the laptop replaced. Still sucks to find that along with the fun of a new computer comes the realization that some old reliable personal favorite bit of software no longer works for you. Hope you can find something that makes for a nice replacement.

Thanks. I'm still pretty sore, but I heal fast.

Yeah, some part of me dies every time technology leaves one of my legacy apps behind. Cliptrakker is a little app that runs in the notif area, and every time you Cntl-C copy something, it is saved on a little file. You can move some clips you want to keep onto another tab, and pull them up any time you need to paste a well-used bit of text, such as replying to users who email me asking to join the forum using gmail:

Yeah, we had to stop allowing gmail because of all the spammers using gmail to make fake accounts. However, I can set it up manually using the gmail account you listed. Thanks for taking the time to ping me. Subsim always welcomes new members, make yourself feel at home, mate.

After a few hours of downloading one after another shareware progs and evaluating, I think I have a winner. And oddly enough, it's free.

Glad to hear you're okay, Neal. How'd your bike fare?
