Clip PRO is an OS 5 extension that remedies a number of problems with the standard Palm OS clipboard. It increases the amount of text you can copy from 1KB up to 64KB, allows you to keep up to 14 clipboards active at any one time, and gives you a wide range of text editing tools.
One way to use Clip PRO is to assign a hard button to it. Do this by selecting a button appropriate to your device from the list when you tap "Key". Then whenever you need to use Clip PRO simply hold down the button for about 1 second and the menu will be presented to you.
Clip PRO can be activated through the command bar, so if you want to copy a piece of text you select the text as you normally would, then activate the command bar with the upward right-slanting stroke, select Clip PRO, then Copy. Pasting is just as easy, except the Paste option will open another list containing your 10 clipboards, and show you the first dozen or so characters. Find the one you want and voila!
Clip PRO also has an "auto menu" option. When selected all you have to do is select a piece of text and Clip PRO will automatically display its menu - allowing you to cut/copy with less pen taps! To disable the "auto menu" option simply turn off the checkbox labelled "Auto menu" in Clip PRO.
You can also edit your clipboards - simply launch the Clip PRO application, select the desired clipboards from the list, make any changes you desire, then tap the "Save" button!
The Tools menu will allow you to perform a number of useful manipulations on selected text. These tools are also available within the Clip PRO application so you can manipulate your stored clips as well.
