Clipboard Scripts Lite is a set of AppleScripts that simplify repetitive tasks performed by users. It automates common actions frequently executed on a Mac.
One of the key features of Clipboard Scripts is its use of the clipboard as the basis for the tasks performed. The clipboard is a Mac OS component that holds data when copying and pasting in different applications. By building AppleScripts that perform various tasks to text data on the clipboard, Clipboard Scripts provide users with an easy and accessible way of automating their workflow.
To use Clipboard Scripts, you need to trigger them from the Apple "Script Menu", which is included with Mac OS X. You may need to "activate" the script menu by double-clicking on the "Script Menu.menu" item in the "Applications > AppleScript" folder on your Mac OS X computer. Once activated, a script icon should appear in your menu bar at the top of the screen, allowing you to access any script installed under the script menu from within any application.
While a fairly wide range of scripts are installed by default with the script menu, Clipboard Scripts help to extend that base set by providing additional useful functionality. This solution includes five scripts designed to aid users in common tasks:
- Add Prefix: Prompts for a prefix, and adds that prefix to the beginning of each paragraph on the clipboard.
- Add Suffix: Prompts for a suffix, and adds that suffix to the end of each paragraph on the clipboard.
- Convert to Lowercase: Converts the text on the clipboard to lowercase format.
-Convert to Uppercase: Converts the text on the clipboard to upper case format.
-Display Length: Counts the characters or paragraphs of the text on the clipboard, and displays the count to the user.
In summary, Clipboard Scripts is a useful and easy-to-use group of AppleScripts designed to automate tasks, reduce repetition, and optimize workflows. Its use of the clipboard as a basis for performing tasks makes it accessible from any application, while its integration with the script menu allows for easy access to any installed script. If you're looking for a way to gain more efficiency and save time, Clipboard Scripts might just be the solution you're looking for.
