Clipboard Manager plugin for Sublime Text 2
|
|
===========================================
|
|
|
|
A version of the Sublime Text 2 plugin at <http://www.sublimetext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2260&start=0>
|
|
that makes for TextMate-like clipboard history.
|
|
|
|
Originally written by AJ Palkovic ([ajpalkovic](https://github.com/ajpalkovic/SublimePlugins)),
|
|
modified by Martin Aspeli ([optilude](https://gist.github.com/1132507)), and
|
|
further modified and packaged for `Package Control` by Colin Thomas-Arnold
|
|
([colinta](https://github.com/colinta/SublimeClipboardManager))
|
|
|
|
My version of this plugin *does not use* `clipboard_history` as the prefix. See
|
|
the full command-list below.
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
1. Using Package Control, install "Clipboard Manager"
|
|
|
|
Or:
|
|
|
|
1. Open the Sublime Text 2 Packages folder
|
|
|
|
- OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 2/Packages/
|
|
- Windows: %APPDATA%/Sublime Text 2/Packages/
|
|
- Linux: ~/.Sublime Text 2/Packages/
|
|
|
|
2. clone this repo
|
|
3. Install keymaps for the commands (see Example.sublime-keymap for my preferred keys)
|
|
|
|
Commands
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
**The basics**
|
|
|
|
`clipboard_manager_cut`: Self Explanatory
|
|
|
|
`clipboard_manager_copy`: Self Explanatory
|
|
|
|
`clipboard_manager_paste`: Self Explanatory.
|
|
|

*Options*: indent (default: False): Determines whether to use the `paste` or
|
|
`paste_and_indent` built-in command.
|
|

|
|
|
|
**Navigating clipboard history**
|
|
|
|
`clipboard_manager_next_and_paste` (`super+alt+v`)
|
|
|
|
Goes to the next entry in the history and pastes it.
|
|
*Options*: indent (default: `False`)
|
|
|
|
`clipboard_manager_previous_and_paste` (`super+shift+v`)
|
|
|
|
Goes to the previous entry in the history and pastes it.
|
|
*Options*: indent (default: `False`)
|
|
|
|
`clipboard_manager_next` (`super+pageup` aka `super+fn+up`)
|
|
|
|
Goes to the next entry in the history, but doesn't paste. (the content will
|
|
appear as a status message)
|
|
|
|
`clipboard_manager_previous` (`super+pagedown` aka `super+fn+down`)
|
|
|
|
Goes to the previous entry in the history, but doesn't paste. (the content will
|
|
appear as a status message)
|
|
|
|
`clipboard_manager_choose_and_paste` (`super+ctrl+alt+v`)
|
|
|
|
Shows the clipboard history in a "quick panel".
|
|
|
|
`clipboard_manager_show` (`super+ctrl+shift+v, /`)
|
|
|
|
Shows the clipboard history in an "output panel", and points to the current
|
|
clipboard item. This was mostly useful for development, but you might find it
|
|
beneficial as well.
|
|
|

|
|
|
**Registers**
|
|
|
|
Right now registers do not add/remove from the clipboard history. *This may
|
|
change!!* I would appreciate feedback about this feature.
|
|
|
|
`clipboard_manager_copy_to_register` (there are a ton, e.g. `super+ctrl+shift+c, 1`, `super+ctrl+shift+c, a`)
|
|
|
|
Puts the selection into a `register`. The example keymap includes a register
|
|
binding for every number and letter. Register keys should be single characters.
|
|
|
|
`clipboard_manager_paste_from_register` (`super+ctrl+shift+v, 1`, `super+ctrl+shift+v, a`)
|
|
|
|
Pastes the contents of a `register`. Again, there are lots of example key
|
|
bindings.
|
|
|
|
`clipboard_manager_show_registers` (`super+ctrl+shift+v, ?`)
|
|
|
|
Shows the clipboard registers in an "output panel", similar to
|
|
`clipboard_manager_show`.

**Helpful Tips**
|
|
|
|
There are two ways to find out what you've got hanging out in your clipboard
|
|
history, you should use both. The `clipboard_manager_choose_and_paste` command
|
|
is your goto. It uses the fuzzy finder input panel, so you can quickly find and
|
|
paste the entry you want.
|
|
|
|
The other useful trick is to use `clipboard_manager_show` to show an output
|
|
panel at the bottom of the screen. As you scroll through history using
|
|
`clipboard_manager_next` and `clipboard_manager_previous`, it will update that
|
|
panel, with an arrow pointing the current entry. Then you can
|
|
`clipboard_manager_next_and_paste`, and it will get updated then, too. Keeps
|
|
you sane if you're doing something crazy.
|
|
|
|
If you've got a repetive task to do, with lots of copy/pastes, use registers.
|
|
They do not get affected by usual copy/pasting, so you can rest assured that
|
|
your work flow will not get affected. The keyboard shortcuts are unfortunately
|
|
quite verbose (`super+ctrl+shift+c, letter/digit`), but look at
|
|
Example.sublime-keymap and you'll see that it is easy to assign a quicker
|
|
shortcut for registers you like to use. Registers do not have to be one letter,
|
|
any string can be used as the key.
