    Pasting style has probably saved me a month of life. It works across virtually every app and can accomplish near miraculous fixes.

    You are the best! I use your clip tools especially to copy the title of a UA-cam video then I clip the link in the share button. Then I go to my notes app and use the clip tools to paste the title and its link. What A time saver. Many thanks

    WOW! I have used Macs since the first one came out - and never explored all the variations you show here, Would have saved a lot of time using these suggested actions.

    You are so skilled at explaining things, only experts can explain things in a simple way! thank you. To cover this topic further, perhaps you might consider explaining "cut" in a future video.

    Thanks Gary. Excellent. TY for Paste- style- that is a life-saver! Also love the look of your App and will install it on my Mac. ❤ Also the second clipboard, I never knew existed and sometimes I want to add to my original Clip but did not know a way to do it. This second clipboard gets round that. Thanks.

    Excellent. This solves a problem that several Mac Community members had: the symbol for copied material in the instrument menu had disappeared . They all had in common Parallels on their disks (as did I) and concluded that Parallel Tools had torpedoed the copy symbol. The important point was to recover the function and this does the job and then some.

    Coming from Windows, I really miss the Cut and Paste Commands in the Windows equavilent of Mac Finder. It should be Cmd X and Cmd V but instead I have to learn Cmd C and Opt Cmd V to cut and paste from the internal disk to an external hard disk. The ^K/^Y options is something that I did not know about so might give that a try but is difficult when you use both operating systems.

    • @zoltanzana

      The basic idea here is that if you want to move a file (on Windows, CTRL-X) and, for instance, you get a phone call and forget about the file being cut, it will disappear from its original location without being pasted into the new one. However, if you simply copy the file (Cmd + C on Mac), it will remain in its original location. The file will only move when you paste it (Cmd + Option + V) into the new location.

    Good tips. I would guess paste and match style is my most used secondary shortcut. I hadn't known about kill and yank. That's a little humorous they would get named that.

    • @macmost
      @macmost  5 днів тому +1

      Yeah, back in those days they tried to get everything to match the first letter of the shortcut itself.

    Nice use of Live Text. But I had to look up why Apple used "pb" (for "pasteboard") instead of "cb" in cbcopy/cbpaste. I may have trouble remembering that oddity. I'm wondering how you do it! But as an old emacs user, ^k/y are forever in my muscle memory! Thanks for the great video!

  • @peaceridge

    Great video as usual. One thing I notice - I don't know if it is a Mac error or a Google Calendar error. I can't command C from anywhere and then try to command V in Calendar - just beeps at me. However, I can right click and paste to Calendar - very odd.

    It would be nice if apple copy the windows clipboard option of being able to hold many different clipboard items at once. I find that really useful for pasting email and password and the like.

    • @macmost

      Lots of free clipboard managers to choose from, though. Like my own that I mention here.

  • @soapyfrog

    ^K/^Y are from emacs text system. ^E/^A to move to end/beginning of line, ^O to open line at cursor etc. Shame we can’t have vi bindings 😢

    • @donlibes

      The programmers at Apple prefer emacs. 🙂

    An apparent limitation to Kill and Yank is that the undelete buffers are unique to each app: You can't Kill in TextEdit and then Yank it into Pages. Hmmmmm. Any access to the buffers using Terminal, Gary?

    Why am I not getting your videos in my downcast app. I used to get them all the time. Did something change. I can only get them on UA-cam now.

    • @macmost
      @macmost  4 дні тому

      You can get them here at UA-cam, or at the MacMost.com web site. If you want something to remind you to check for new videos, I have a free weekly newsletter that lists them (macmost.com/newsletter). But yes, the podcast RSS feed is no more. Few people used it. I made a video about it here: www.patreon.com/posts/end-of-video-115624657
