Would you mind sharing which tools you use or share the scripts? That sounds like a fantastic, no brainer way of saving stuff. I'm guessing there's a lot of noise too, like when you're editing code?
At work I use autohotkey script that dumps clipboard to a text file with a timestamp.
I will see if i can get the code.
#Persistent
SetTimer, rload, 3600000
firstrun:=true
return
OnClipboardChange:
if (firstrun=true)
Goto, CONSECRUN
Sleep,500
curclip:=clipboard
Sleep,500
if oldclip<>%curclip%
FIleAppend, `r`n=============================== =======`r`n%A_DD%-%A_MMM%- %A_YYYY%: :%A_Hour%:%A_Min%: %A_Sec%`r`n%Clipboard%, %A_ComputerName%Tracker.clip
oldclip:=clipboard
CONSECRUN:
firstrun:=false
return
rload:
Reload
Sleep 1000 ; If successful, the reload will close this instance during the Sleep, so the line below will never be reached.
MsgBox, 4,, The script could not be reloaded. Would you like to open it for editing?
IfMsgBox, Yes, Edit
return
