Better clipboard management on OSX
On Windows and OSX you still have a pretty basic clipboard by default which only allows you to store one item at a time. However if you’re editing text / code there are moments when you’d be happy if the clipboard could store multiple items (for instance you are rearranging a long function and copying from different places of it to the beginning of it). Switching / scrolling back and forth multiple times just to edit your shit is kind of annoying. So what could be done?
Get jumpcut. Install it. It will install a menubar item and while it is running all clipboard copies / cuts (CTRL+C / CTRL+X) will be saved in jumpcut as well. And by default it sets up a new shortcut (CTRL+ALT + V), which allows you to choose from the multiple items sitting in its clipboard. Once you pop it up with the shortcut, hold your fingers on CTRL+ALT and use the arrow keys to pick the item from the clipboard you want. It is wonderful.
Enjoy and save some time.
