A good Clipboard and Text Snippet management tool
SummerFadeSeptember 5, 2013
Pros
* Powerfully text-centric * Saves data automatically * Clipboard history * Global hotkeys make it easy to copy and paste text anywhere in any application * Integrates well with other JGsoft products (EditPad, PowerGREP, RegexBuddy, etc.) * Spellcheck
Cons
* Does not support formatted text or images
Summary
Nice, but no support and not as good as Clipmate
mrwulJune 10, 2012
Pros
Small, fast, definitely above average. Nice user-interface, userfriendly.
Cons
Zero support - have sent a few mails, but no response. Looks like they don't care about you..? Or maybe only care when you actually bought the product? There is some kind of forum, but I donot know how it works, there is no help there either and I donot want to spend time of trying to figure out. Apart from some issues with AceText (e.g. why deleting original clips when merging them?) the lack of support is the mean reason of my low rating it.
Summary
I'll stick with ClipMate!
Powerful and simple

Pros
I've used it every day for years. I store and quickly retrieve text snippets such as regular expressions, SQL queries, and email signatures.
Cons
The fact that it disconnects regularly from the clipboard is frustrating. It's also not as powerful (feature-rich) as ClipMate.
Summary
Slim, full featured ClipBoard extender
TerraeNovember 7, 2005
Pros
Light weight, fast, editor based on JGSoft's powerful EditPad editor, text cleanup, tabbed-based collection interface. <p> <p>Bottom line: In comparison with other ClipBoard extenders, AceText has the best balance of footprint to feature set.
Cons
While it can export clips as plain text, you can't export with titles so if you use titles to organize your data don't bother exporting. As with any ClipBoard extender, it can lose its connection to the clipboard--but AceText has no manual reconnect option so you'll have to restart it. (This is uncommon, though)
