| Version 3.0 adds the capability to save and print the clipboards text contents. It filters out any non-printable characters and performs line wrapping for printing. This allows for cutting text from web pages or other sources and keeping a copy. It also adds the ability to to "Snapshot" windows or any marked area on the screen and save it as a .jpg file via the SGrab program. These new features can be found under the "Tools" menu. It also adds support for several more getvideo sites in "Auto Mode" and more.
See below for full list of changes.
A small OS4 utility which uses 'wget' to download webpages and files pointed to by HTTP: and FTP: protocal URL's that reside in the clipboard. Additionally it can play/view or save direct link graphics, audio, video and postscript (PDF etc.) files as well as files on sites such as YouTube and Myspace. Playback and viewing requires "AmiGS", "Multiview" and optionally "getvideo" and "Mplayer (read docs about version required)".
