Since I write a Blog article on a daily basis, which generally involves much editing, I need a Windows clipboard extender which gives me much more versatility than the standard Windows clipboard offers.
Yankee Clipper 3 is a free little application that handles Text, Rich Text, Graphics, and of real importance to me URL’s. A great feature is the ability to launch copied URL’s directly from within the program.
I prefer simple programs that are functional, easy to understand and use, and that don’t involve extreme learning curves; Yankee Clipper 3, qualifies in every way.
Yankee Clipper 3 is simply to set up, and just as simple to use.
Fast facts:
