∽ THE PASTER ∼

The Paster, first released in 2001, is a very handy utility that monitors the clipboard and saves everything a user copies. The Paster parses what it finds in the clipboard and makes it available for reuse.

Even if it's almost two decades old, some people are still using it today! It did sell quite well over the years but was nowhere as successful as Dialer 2000 was.

The ability to collect clips, spellcheck and format them before pasting them was very useful. Later versions included a dictionary and thesaurus lookup as well as handy features for filling forms on web pages!

The Paster also had network support, allowing anyone with the program on a network to share clips!

We later decided to bundle The Paster with Dialer 2000, and a lot of users began using it and ask for new features. We were happy to oblige!
