Hi Guys,

As an MS Windows user I used to copy&paste a lot of text from one place to another. Between documents or web-pages or what not ...
In order to be able to keep multiple clippings of text and/or pics, I used either two little small freeware. One was Ars Clip and the second was Clip-X.

Note: If you still insist on using Windows, I recommend that you at least use the portable versions. They create less holes in the registry.

I missed this feature on Mint until I found Glipper which is a clipboard manager for gnome.

A short guide to the unexperienced user in 8 short steps:

1. Go to Menu ->
2. Software Manager ->
3. in the top right search window type: "glipper" (without quotes) ->
4. click on it and install ->
5. if asked, insert your super-user password ->
6. reboot you system ->
7. you will see a new icon next to the clock looking like a capital G ->
8. right click on it to tweak as you like or is possible

For some detailed pictures, you can also go to FAQforge.

I use in on Mint 13 Maya - Mate 32 bit.
Have fun :-)
