GCM 1.0

GCM (GNOME Clipboard Manager) 1.0 and the GCM2 1.0 (Gnome 2.0 port of
GCM) are now available for download

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/gcm/gcm-beta-0.1.tar.gz
http://osdn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/gcm/gcm2-1.0.tar.gz


What is GCM
===========

GCM (GNOME Clipboard Manager) is an application to help you manage your
clipboard selections. It will autocollect selections on a shelf and
allow you to choose which selection(s) you want to use for pasting.

You can open a collected selection to edit it, manually create new
selections, and delete-copy-paste them, do sed-based search and replace
operations on them (regular expressions). You can select with which
selection-type you want to work : CLIPBOARD, PRIMARY, SECONDARY or a
custom Atom. You can select which TARGETs you want to receive : TEXT,
text/html (copypasting HTML data from/to your browser), richtext
(copypasting data from/to OpenOffice.org) or a custom Atom. You can
start Gnome Clipboard Manager as a PanelApplet.  More features are
listed below 

In future we are planning to make some tcp/ip networking support for GCM
which will allow you to send selections over a network to another host
running GCM. (Like the netclip application).

Please note that this project is far from finished. There is no good
documentation yet and a lot features are unfinished at this moment. I am
looking for people who want to help me with development of this
tool. Suggestions, skilled developpers, documentation writers and
translators are always welcome.

GCM is free software (GPL).
