Clipboard managers pasting in F# Interactive

130 views Asked by At

I have tried a few clipboard managers and two of the best (Ditto and Ethervane Echo) paste on an open F# Interactive window when I am trying to paste on the Editor. Others, like ClipMate (not free) paste on the Editor window. Is there a way to force pasting into the Editor window?

(I am aware that one can use Ctrl+Shift+V to cycle through recent clipboard items)

Try Clip Angel clipboard manager. I use it for coding in C#. It pastes with no problem to C# interactive. And if you will meet some place where nothing can paste, Clip Angel has "Emulate keyboard input" feature to break the defence =).

FWIW I found the following happens using Ethervane Echo.

1) In an F# solution:

a) Selecting an item in the clip list and hitting Enter sends the clip to F# Interactive.

b) Selecting an item in the clip list and double-clicking on it sends the clip to the Editor window.

2) In a C# solution:

Selecting an item in the clip list and either hitting Enter or double-clicking on it sends the clip to the Editor window.
