Spartan Multi Clipboard
« on: January 17, 2007, 06:45 AM »


The Spartan multi clipboard sets a new standard in multi clipboard software. Its unique new interface allows you to choose from up to 150 pre-saved clips without clicking, scrolling or selecting groups. Just pop it up and click on the clip you want. You can arrange your clips anyway that suits you to make them easy to find - all alphabetic, some alphabetic or some highlighted in color. Spartan has all the features you would expect, clip preview, sound, keyboard only pasting, automatic web bookmarks, automatic email addressing, form filling, web logon, phone dialing, program launch, and bulk paste. It pastes graphic clips directly into Outlook Express ( You can even have it automatically reduce large photos) and it has onboard editors for both text and graphic clips. It even includes its own built in backup and restore system to keep your clip files safe.

I have been running the M8 Spartan clipboard for a couple of months by now, and I like it a lot; I think it is worth the price. Only one little feature bothered me: Spartan has an activation button which will pop up whenever the mouse pointer reaches the pre-selected edge of the screen. But this would also happen in the corners, meaning that the button in my setup would get in the way when I was trying to close a maximized window. So finally I pulled my act together and wrote M8 and asked for option not to activate in the corners. 50 hours later I recieved an email from John Turnbull telling that my feature request had been met, and the new version was ready for download.

In merely 50 hours! Fine service!!  :up:

Hello guys, I open this thread again.

I hear about the developer of spartan is retired (i think he was not healty).

I went to his site and is down, and there is no way to download the latest versions.

He released the v22 for free, as I see on some forum (Russian).

It was a very nice software, not sure any of you got those gems at the latest version.

the site was here: https://m8software.com/

my latest version was 21.08, i really appreciate if somebody got the latest one.

This is the latest that i see on archive.org

The latest version of Spartan is 22.05

Upgrades.... Upgrades to the latest version of Spartan can be purchased here.

The list below includes all fixes and minor improvements.

Do you still have the copy of V21.08? If so, any possibility that you can share it with me?
I also have bought this software, but I only have V10 in my setups.

The author indeed states that the last version is free, as he is diagnosed with cancer.
