But if you just want a clipboard history, move on - there are simpler and more straightforward tools elsewhere. If you really need its power, then grab a copy and start exploring. It has a command to open a URL, for instance, but this doesn't use the default Windows browser instead it tries to launch curl, failing if you've not installed it.ĬopyQ is still an impressive program. And there's vanishingly little documentation to point you in the right direction.ĬopyQ's Windows build isn't exactly optimised for its environment, either. Core concepts aren't clear (we imagined we'd be able to manually organise items into different tabs - but no). The official document gives this, for example, as a way to print all the items in a particular tab:Ĭopyq eval - "tab('notes') for(i=size() i>0 -i) print(str(read(i-1)) + '\n') " What's more, all of this can be manipulated from the command line, to an astonishing level of detail. Creating a custom command, for example, isn't just a matter of specifying "program.exe %1" the Commands dialog has 17 options which you can tweak. Other programs might have one or two customisable hotkeys to control their main actions CopyQ has 38 (which alone tells you just how much it can do). You also get a huge amount of configurability. There's even a built-in "commands" system which allows them to be processed, on demand or automatically: you can have items encrypted or decrypted, opened in a browser, launched in a media player, pasted as plain text, saved as a thumbnail or QR code, and a whole lot more.
Individual clipboard items may be edited. You can drag and drop items around, delete elements you don't need, sort all (or just some) of the items, even organise them into tabs. The clipboard history isn't fixed, though. It lives in the system tray in a click or two you can be viewing a list of recent clipboard items (text or images) and any of these can then be selected or pasted into the current document. CopyQ is a tool which maintains a history of everything you copy to the clipboard, and allows you to manipulate this in various ways.Īt its simplest, the program works much like any other clipboard manager.
