firefox extension idea
Posted: Thu Sep 27, 2007 11:13 pm
Just browsed the extension pages and I didn't see it.. doesn't mean it's not there though.
But I offer this idea to anyone who's not lazy and knows how to do it.
VirtualClipBoard
Loads a new line delimited file into a VirtualClipBoard menu options. Each line of the file is an entry that can be pasted into the selected textarea/input element on the web page.
For example, if you're a forum moderator (not here, but could be I guess), you could have the following in file.
Then you go to Tools > VirtualClipBoard > {you pick your line} and it inserts it into the element. 
I'm full of ideas....
Another idea I have (which is probably way more complicated), is to save more than the last copied text to the clipboard. e.g. When you right click > paste.. it should pop up a submenu of several of your last copied items that you can choose from. And then work it into an extension somehow.
I hate that one-copy limitation on windows.

Read the rules.
Post in the appropriate forum.
