System-wide hotkeys to move up and down the Quick Paste pop-up Menu, or whichever CHS folder is currently selected, and put them ready for the next Ctrl-V. Briefly show excerpt as tooltip at cursor location each time these hotkeys are used (like ClipCache)-rjbull (June 25, 2007, 03:36 AM)
i found an interesting idea: Stack Copy-jgpaiva (June 28, 2007, 06:36 AM)
thanks rj, I think I'll wait for version 2 [FARR] to come out & see do I understand any of it-tomos (June 28, 2007, 08:07 AM)
I wonder could you use something like that in conjunction with Autohotkey -
in order to make keyboard shortcuts for some of it's various commands - or would there be an easier way ?-tomos (June 28, 2007, 12:50 AM)
You may want to take a screenshot of an application you are working with every n seconds for documentation or bug reporting purposes. There is a feature in CopyMessageBox that allows to do this.
assign meaningful namesyou should be able to do this already.-mouser (June 25, 2007, 04:05 AM)
the others all seem very doable.
when you say pop up faster, do you mean the main menu, or the quick paste menu (which always seems to pop up quite fast for me)?, or both?
If there is only one result, it's always first, therefore underlined option seems to be redundant.-dizoriented (June 22, 2007, 09:01 AM)
[...]I'm using the old-style Yahoo. I think I avoided the beta because I didn't have enough screen resolution for it at the time, and I've never bothered to try it again. Besides, I think it uses ActiveX, and isn't that a security risk?-rjbull (June 16, 2007, 03:49 PM)
It works on Firefox as well as IE so presumably it uses JavaScript and not ActiveX which would exclusively require IE.-Carol Haynes (June 19, 2007, 07:27 AM)
I also use colour coding with emails based on Address Guard addresses (which means SPAM stands out)
I am handicapped when it comes to the popular FARR: I have a visual oriented memory and cannot remember many program names. At least not when I want to use the program in mind! But I remember the exact location of the shortcut, and the look of the folder's icon!-Curt (June 18, 2007, 05:16 PM)
Well... I still have 50 GMail invites (that work, though I didn't think you needed them anymore?!) - if you want to see what the fuss is about, just PM me!-Darwin (June 17, 2007, 07:58 PM)
I use it so little I'll have to set a reminder to go and look at it on the Web to keep it alive...I started using Yahoo as my main addy for everything software related (as in buying and contacting support) in about 1998 so have the most experience with it. GMail I *had* to have when it was invite only and I got an address a couple of years ago, but I've never really used it so it could be argued that my preference for Yahoo stems from familiarity more than anything... Anyway, try the beta (it's easy to switch back); I think you'll be impressed.-Darwin (June 16, 2007, 08:32 PM)
I actually prefer the Yahoo and Live offerings to GMail (though I have and use all three!). I'm wondering, though, if Yahoo will ever make it out of beta. It's pretty solid, and will be my favourite of all the options if its idiosyncrasies (mailboxes failing to load, for example - not good) ever get ironed out. It would be nice, too, if they'd let me access my account from a POP3 client without having to pay $19.95 a year for the privilege.-Darwin (June 14, 2007, 01:37 PM)
The only problem I have with my current usage of AHK is that I need to open my script from time to time to remember what my tags are... Right now, it's not a big issue because my script is not that big, but... it could grow substantially with time. If only I could script something to have a popup menu like the one from CHS to see all my tags categorized, etc. etc.-Armando (June 10, 2007, 05:59 PM)
PS :And If you feel like giving your opinion on file naming (and your own personal habit concerning file naming)
I have a lot of bookmarks...and cannot keep them organized. I think what I need is a way to index them so I can start typing ... and a tool (TBD) will bring up matching URLS, keys, descriptions. etc.-222fbj (June 12, 2007, 08:48 PM)
If you want portability, or more features like built-in passwords, you might take a look at LinkStash. New version due soon...
