Thanks! I'm using ditto on my PC. Unintelligible why something like that is not integrated in the system directly. The "Office Clipboard" is a strange pice of [...] - okay, the end of my english knowledge. Indescribable what defective Ideas some big companies have...

Always welcome!

Could never compensate all the time and work that is needed to learn a programming language and to create such a Application. But it is a very good kind of motivation to keep going and a sign that I'm creating something really useful for to community.

It shows the content of the element you have selected at the list from the top. In the list you have only a preview. If the text is to long you need the text box at the bottom.

Additionally you're able to select a specific part or edit the text before you copy it again to the clipboard using [CTRL]+[C]
Normally you have only to press the button at the right to put the clip to the clipboard without changes. But sometimes you have selected simply to much. (from a webpage at example)

It's currently simply not checked if it makes sense to press the button or not. But it doesn't break anything to press it if the list is empty.

The Application adds at the startup the current content from the clipboard to the list. If the clipboard is currently empty it adds a EMPTY to the list. I will fix this later.

At the moment it's only possible to erase the whole content from the database.

I'm not sure if I add the possibility to delete single items or the possibility to protect several items and erase the whole list except the protected items. I'm currently not sure...

Thats two arrows pointing in different directions... something to "share" or to "exchange"...

I used google images to find something that could inspire me to a meaningful icon and additionally something that I'm able to draw myself...

A hard task for me. And the icon should fit to future features I have currently in my mind. But suggestions are welcome!

I had sometimes the case that I have copied a link or a text to the clipboard and my N900 ran out of battery... (also a pain)
