Power
Paster (32-bit) - (238KB)
A great clipboard enhancer, this utility
tracks and stores the last 5 items you copy to the clipboard. More
importantly, it lets you save and organize hundreds of bits of text for
quick pasting into later documents. Create a folder (like E-MAIL
RESPONSES), give an item a name, and then save it. Anytime you want to

down in your System Tray), click the item, and it is instantly copied to
your clipboard -- just hit CTRL-V to paste it into your other documents.
