Editor's review of Ditto

• "Ditto"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: Ditto 3.15.4

This free clipboard manager looks straightforward at first but ultimately lacks cut-and-paste simplicity. The system-tray icon's Quick Paste option displays recent clipboard items, which you can drag and drop or double-click to insert in the current document. The 10 most recently copied items are numbered and can be accessed through hot keys; others appear in the order they were copied. You can sort clips in ascending or descending order, but the Filter box at the bottom of Ditto's window didn't work in our tests, and managing clips became more difficult with each new entry. The multitabbed Options window looks drab and cluttered, and while some settings, such as keeping the program on top, are easy to understand, others need explanation the meager help file doesn't provide. Ditto covers the basics, but many users--especially novices--will be disappointed by its lack of guidance and limited clip-management capabilities.

  "ctrl+c to your heart's content :D"

  by gaurav_12 on April 30, 2008

  Pros: superb clipboard utility. you can copy all the stuff you want from anywhere and then retrieve it later on easily.clips can be assigned shortuts, easy formatting options, thumbnail preview for copied images,latest version is skinnable.

  being open-source you can customize it to suit your needs.

  Cons: instead of grouping, folders would be better. some feature to retrieve accidentally deleted clips would be nice.

  "A good application"

  by Y-N-T on January 14, 2009

  Pros: The size of managed clips ? hundreds of formatted text captions and images

  Cons: Ditto's speed seems slow when there are these hundreds

  Summary: Ditto is well designed and very usefull clipboard manager with a lot of settings.
  Moreover, there is Ditto's portable (for USB etc.) version at its ditto-cp.sourceforge.net
