Finding the program to download was easy enough,
they have it posted I think about everywhere it could be. It's a
small download of 512k compressed winzip file. Unzip and start
the setup.exe file then you're on your way to easy saving of
clippings. The installation will let you install to whatever
directory you choose and puts a link to the program on your
desktop. The registered version will let you hide the 101 clip
icon. It does not, however, add the link to your start menu--this
would be a nice default, but if you can't add it to the menu
yourself you probably shouldn't be playing around with shareware
yet...
After clicking on the desktop icon it greets you with a simple
interface that lets you choose a few settings. One is for when
the clippings window will pop up and the other is for the paste
window pop up. All of the settings are OK, just depends on your
taste and usage of the keyboard or the program your running.
Using the program was easy enough, it had to be because the help
files didn't work. I'll just chuck this one up to the shareware
version I had, I expect the full version will have this feature
in working order.
You have the ability to save up to 999 clippings in each of the
10 groups (yeah that's right, 9990 clippings in all). Each
clipping can be uniquely named and stored in any of the 10
uniquely named groups. Saving commonly used clippings this way
would be a good addition to any word processing program if it was
a bit simpler to re-paste a saved entry. As it stands right now
you have to find the clipping, select the text you want copy and
do the standard copy and paste procedure. It all sounds amazing
but keep in mind the more you save the less drive space you have.
Not to worry though, it's just as simple to delete clippings as
it is to save them- just select the clip and hit the 'Delete
Clipping' button. SO, if that isn't enough, you can also edit
saves. Just find the clipping make the changes in the 'Clipping
Text' window and save the text again.
It's a handy little program but I would suspect after awhile I
will find it a nuisance to have to shut down the program every
time I don't want to save a clipping. The wugnet award they claim
to have been awarded is yet to be seen on wugnet's site... but
it's probably deserved all the same.
