Clipboard Search

Post by WyattLW »

Is there a function to match everything search with my clipboard?
i am using dual monitors and i want to check if i already have a doc in a drive before fetching a new copy.
So is there a %Clipboard% variable or tag that i can use to automatically update the search with my clipboard?


Thank you!

In the upcoming Everythhing 1.5 you can use the following search query. Results will dynamically be updated when your clipboard changes.

Code: Select all

#clipboard:

Some alternatives:
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=12480
(Textify will work outside your browser too).

Just making a note here, as there's two variations.

#clipboard: = replaces search with text from the clipboard.
clipboard: = replaces search with quoted text from the clipboard.

#clipboard:
