  • DroidOmni

    Clipboard manager in the cloud for Android

  • clipboardcopies

    A Mac Menu bar application to monitor the clipboard and write out URLs to a file when detected

  • https://github.com/owenfi/clipboardcopies

    The article does strike me as "scope creep" or missing the point of the question...I've taken this super crappy version and added it to my startup items, I think I might find it useful, and if I do it might grow over time. The polish can happen later if needed. I was able to accommodate a bit of the polish out of the gate by saving to individual files based on the time. The granularity roughly corresponds with the polling frequency. (Turns out there isn't a clipboard did change notification?)

    To me the "complexities" are those things lurking beneath the surface, that a newbie doesn't know how to resolve, and an expert forgets to even point out. In this case the complexities I saw were:

  • Simba

    Simba is a program used to repeat certain (complicated) tasks. Typically these tasks involve using the mouse and keyboard. Simba is programmable, which means you can design your own logic and steps that Simba will follow, based upon certain input such a colours on the screen. (by ollydev)

  • clipnotify

    Notify on new X clipboard events

  • Using clipnotify[0], one could fix the busy-wait issue pretty easily.
