Internal Clipboard

[coffeeturtle]

Programs like Ditto are a great augmentation to the Windows clipboard where it keeps a list of items you copy and paste and you can go back to days, weeks, months later. It also comes in handy for multiple copied items you need to paste over and over again.

Windows 10 also now has a clipboard history capability (though not as robust, I think, as Ditto).

I would like to simulate this type of clipboard history into my own apps independent of Windows' clipboard, but I haven't a clue as to where to begin.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions, examples, shelved codes. ☺

Someone called @caramen was working on something similiar 

[caramen]

yeah i did it. I have 5 version with improvements. My Goal is to promote AutoIT with public Free distribution of this.

For me it a genius tool. I do 1400 copy paste / day i know that since i indexed each copy paste in that tool ^^

 

May you want contribute into my project ?

Or if you want to get some code PM me.

 

I got 2 major improvement left to get it pefect.

I have to know how to delete a line from my log after deleting it in my listview.

I have to replace the _Ispressed and put a VM_Input Register In stead. after that this tool will be perfect.

But i have no time actualy to dev. HArd time at work.

 

You have to be aware if you do somthing like this in addition of a software it will be hard to do without VM_Input becose if you dont got a perfect loop you wont regiter properly a CTRL + C corectly. And i think you cannot get help about this in the forum because the code to do this can make powerfull malicius thing. (No keyword spent)

 

FYI,

Windows dev team is working also on somthing similar. They Noticed how Copy paste is lake of improvement in Windows history.

I documented myself on this a lot.

Also there is a looot of similar tool.

And recently installed a Clip Clip name software similar to them. it stores the information in the form of clips which are organized chronologically.
