Copy-Paste Like Never Before
Tweet
If you work on the computer daily doing all kinds of research and office work, I've found a tool that will simplify your life! Click-Cutter is real time saver for Internet users. Auto copy text, fix and open in a browser, even with a broken URL, or search any phrase with just one click.
I'd like to focus on the copy-paste act though, because this is the most usable tool. Click Cutter comes in a form of two tools: Firefox add-on, and a desktop client
ClickCutter AutoCopy Firefox addon, allows you to perform a copy of any selected text to clipboard without any mouse clicks or keyboard shortcuts.
How it works:
Just highlight the text you want to copy and while still holding the left button down just stop the mouse movement for a second until you see a 'c' icon appear beside your mouse cursor. After you see 'c,' just release the left button. The copy is done.
The paste function can be performed with mouse middle button click (obstacle). Same as AutoCopy Paste can be turned on/off via the setting panel or mouse right button click.
I really wanted this add-on to work for me, but since it's only copy, and not paste, I downloaded the Desktop version, which is much better because it supports not only web editors, but also desktop services such as: MS Office, Adobe, Notepad and many other document types where text or image can be highlighted and copied.
The Desktop version also comes with lots of other features and settings, so you can customize it the way you please.
Please note that this is still a beta version, but it actually works very well (though I have to admit, I hate downloading software to my computer). Another thing that you should be aware of is the fact that it's very hard to change the traditional copy-paste habit...

thanks
The funny side is linux is doing that for a long long while. If you're in a console: select some text. It's directly inside your clipboard.
Nice to see some 10 year-old features are now going alive in Windows. It's never too late to turn on the photocopying.

The difference between linux autocopy and clickcutter autocopy is that clickcutter allows you not just blindly copy anything you highlight. You have full control of what to copy and what to not. You can copy text or image or whatever else you need to copy.
Obviously it works in Windows which is by far is the only major OS out there and you can use clickcutter practically in any document.
And Autocopy is just one of the functions in clickcutter.
Paste with NO clicks is another unique feature.
It also provides ability to do "one click" search in your favorite search sites. If you wish to search one or 10 websites for the same keyword you still can do it with just a single click.
You can open any non-clickable URL or if you wish you can open 10 URls wih just single click.
Not to mention it requres only one click to open websites via proxy sites
Check clickcutter.com for more features.
Thanks Orli for posting this blog about clickcutter.
