I want to be able to do the following:
- Select text (e.g.,
example text one
) - Hit
Ctrl
+Shift
+1
- Select text 2 (e.g.,
example text two
) - Hit
Ctrl
+Shift
+2
- Hit
Ctrl
+1
and pasteexample text one
- Hit
Ctrl
+2
and pasteexample text two
I've been through a number of clipboard managers trying to find this functionality:
Some of the options above will let me paste with Cmd
+1
(etc.), but none of them will let me copy into slot #1 with a numerical hotkey.
I already have a use for Cmd
+, so I would really like Ctrl
-based hotkeys.
Back in the day on Windows, I used AutoHotkey to write code to do this. It was pretty easy.
Other points:
- I only need slots 0-9 available.
- I'm only looking for plaintext copy/paste.
- I don't need a UI.
- I don't want to have to pay a subscription fee, although a one-time payment would be acceptable.
- If you suggest a general purpose tool like Keyboard Maestro or Alfred, please specify how to create the specific functionality I am asking for.
