I love how acetext just keeps a simple list of everything that's been dumped in your clipboard.-superboyac (October 03, 2011, 03:27 PM)

But isn't that true of all clipboard enhancers?  Which begs the question, what are the special requirements of a code snippet program over and above regular clipboard enhancers?

For me, it's integration with the IDE past simple C&P, i.e. variable substitution, the ability to categorize, and the ability to highlight.

I use a combination of snip-it pro (mentioned above) and coderush.  I didn't mention code rush before, because its quite expensive, and there were already complaints of the price of snip-it pro (:))  But adding either CodeRush or ReSharper increases productivity so much once you get used to using it and get it set up, that IMO it's well worth the price...

Should have known I'd get a coder answer that I wouldn't understand  :-[  Is the variable substitution like that in mouser's FLM, only able to pick variables up from the editor in the IDE?

joiwind:
Maybe browse through this list?

I don't know.  I've never used FLM.  Let's call them fields.  The template is put in, and fields within the template can be navigated and changed.
