Static clip file format

GeoClip can load a file of multiple clips into itself everytime it starts up. This is useful if you often need the same strings to be pasted back and forth.

The file should look like this:

Title or Description of the Clips in the File
Some clip text\\~
More clip text\\~
Another clip, which
could possibly have more than
one line\\~

Note: The ~ seen above needs to be set as the "Seperator Char" in the settings. You can of course, change this, but it needs to be done in both the file, and in the registry settings.

Note: The last line must contain a seperator char (~) in order for the last clip to register as actually being a clip.

Other Settings

GeoClip can play a sound for you every time it recieves a new clip. E.g. a sound will play everytimg you copy a string of text to the clipboard! To do this, open up the "Sounds & Multimedia" applet in the Windows Control Panel.

You can bring up the GeoClip menu by hitting the Hotkeys "Ctrl+Alt+V" - I have personally changed this to be "win+V" as I feel it fits in better with the other [default hotkeys]
