Permanent clipboard / textblock catalogue
Pareidol:
Hi,
Im searching for an application, that shows up with a shortcut and then let me choose one of many prestored textblocks from a database (maybe with a short name, and the text that will be inserted, eg: Signature: Average Joe, Phone:+1234567) and automatically inserts it, wehere my cursor currently is.
Background:
In my daily live I have to work with several tools, documents, e.g., where I often have to enter the same strings, over and over again, after some weeks these texts may change.
Until now, I store them in a notepad, and copy them, but it's very anoying with all those clicks.
Anybody knows such tool?

Mouser's Form Letter Machine might be usable like that

But the most advanced such tool I know is Lintalist. Very customizable!

My own app
https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=51967.0
does something like this. Really it is more useful when a person wants to do what you describe, but also works from multiple offices, and needs to write about specific people (clients, students, etc). It inserts name and gender pronouns into the boilerplate text.
Really you should try just making your own AutoHotkey setup with a bunch of hotstrings.

I thought of Lintalist too.
Ethervane Echo could be a good choice too (do a search in the forums here) -- it's a clipboard extender with a favourites tab and a good search.
Also mouser's CHS (again a clipboard extender based here on donationercoder) would be a good choice imo.
