I think you would really need to try it. As I said yesterday,
I find the clip library really very useful; its simple to use
and easy to create/extend.
Here is a short piece of clip library from a HTML clip lib:
#T=Bold
<b>^!</b>
#T=Italic
<i>^!</i>
#T=Underline text
<span class="underline">^!</span>
#T=Superscript (end note)
<sup>^!</sup>
#T=Code fragment
<code>^!</code>
#T=Highligt text - yellow
<span class="highlight">^!</span>
#T=Centre text
<div align="center">
^!
</div>
Only the text on the line after the "T#" appears in the clip lib side panel.
Double click on the text label and EditPlus inserts the clip text into the
document being edited. The "^!" is where the cursor sits after the clip
insertion. Clips can be inserted "around" existing text.
Very neat; if you use Windows its really worth a try.
Regards,
Peter
