(you have to hold down the CRTL or SHIFT key while right clicking in "whole screen mode")

Button Pusher Push That Freakin' Button (PTFB)
(Donationware)
OS: Windows 9x/Me/NT4/2000
Languages: English
Description: Push the Freakin' Button (or PTFB for short) is a button pressing utility. PTFB runs in the background - usually its only on-screen presence is a mouse-shaped task bar icon. When a dialog causes irritation, you simply tell PTFB which button should be pressed, and it will handle the dialog in future. By default, PTFB is cautious - a dialog has to be a perfect match for its hitlist entry before any buttons will be pressed. But it can be set to be less strict, allowing a range of similar dialogs to be handled from one hitlist entry. Main Features: Simple drag-drop interface for adding buttons to the "hit-list". Buttons will only be pressed once per appearance - no pressing frenzy if button does not dismiss the dialog. Task bar icon for easy access and notification of impending button press. Configurable press delay and three methods of identifying potential targets. NOTES:PTFB will be moving to our new site in the next few weeks - www.tlhouse.co.uk

Simply right-click on the item and select "Send to boilerplate". Unlimited boilerplate collections can be created. URL aware- links copied to clipboard can be instantly launched Has a "Load and Shoot" function to paste text anywhere Can float on top of other applications for fast pasting No size limits for "clippings" Prints any text clipboard entry, nicely word-wrapped This is a simple program to understand and use Has a global hotkey to make the application visible when hidden, and another to instantly show and select past "clippings" without showing the application. Clippings can be dragged and dropped to/from YCIII. Can strip unwanted "quote" characters from "clippings". Supports ordering of boilerplate items By popular request (They dragged me kicking and screaming...): the ability to "chirp" when a new clipping is detected. Just rename "clip.wav.Bak" to "clip.wav" or copy in the file of your choice and name it "clip.wav". You can now instruct YCIII to ignore pictures (METAFILES) from problematic apps such as MS Excel which copies metafiles of nearly infinite width to the clipboard when you select an entire row. This metafile isn't of much use at a later time anyway.
