#Phraseexpress alternative install#
If you have Firefox, but you haven’t tried this yet, install it now. I found a great list of “6 Free Tools that every Windows Programmer should Install” via a contact of mine on Twitter, which made me want to create my own list, similar to the tools listed in the link above, with a few additions and changes: Via Clipdiary is a clipboard manager for keeping the clipboard history.

There are many cases in which you might want to review your clipboard contents. In most cases, that isn’t a problem, but have you ever needed the text you copied 30 minutes or an hour ago? Maybe your computer is acting up and the program you are using hasn’t saved the data, or maybe you copied some interesting information from a web page, but got distracted and forgot to paste it where you wanted? Or you may simply want to recall what you were doing on your computer a month or a year ago. But your data isn’t stored for a long time – when you turn off the computer or just copy another piece of information, the data is lost. The contents of the standard Windows clipboard change as you use it to copy and paste various types of information. I previously recommended PhraseExpress for similar clipboard management functionality, but I’ve since switched to Clipdiary (available free via or ) for a couple of reasons – first, that PhraseExpress would randomly lock up and prevent me from using my Enter key (weird, huh?), and second, because ClipDiary is super lightweight and does exactly what I want it to do.
