FIFO/LIFO

Clibor's FIFO/LIFO feature lets you copy multiple text items in a row and paste them one after another.

Copy, paste, copy, paste, copy, paste — repeating that cycle can be tedious.
With this feature, you can copy several items first, then paste them in sequence.

Pasting with FIFO/LIFO

Right-click the Clibor icon in the system tray and select FIFO or LIFO.
While the mode is active, the tray icon changes to show that FIFO/LIFO mode is on. Copy the items you want to paste, in the order you want them to appear.

When you press Ctrl+V, the items are pasted in the order they were copied.
You can also use Shift+Insert to paste.

FIFO vs. LIFO

FIFO pastes items in the order you copied them — the first item you copied is pasted first.

LIFO pastes the most recently copied item first.

FIFO/LIFO mode on the main screen

While FIFO/LIFO mode is active, opening the main screen shows the queued items.
Items are pasted starting from the top of the list.

You can also assign hotkeys to toggle FIFO or LIFO mode in Preferences > Hotkey.

Insert, edit, delete, and merge in FIFO mode

In FIFO mode, you can insert, edit, delete, or merge entries from the right-click menu.
This is handy when you need to fix a mistake or adjust queued items before pasting.

You can also use Merge all and copy to clipboard to join all queued items into one block of text, separated by line breaks, and copy the result to the clipboard.

Undo last paste

If a paste (Ctrl+V) does not work correctly, the FIFO item is still removed from the queue — but you can restore it with Undo last paste (Ctrl+Shift+Z).

This is useful when you make a mistake and need to try again.

FIFO from Templates

You can also switch into FIFO mode instantly from a Template. See the practical examples page or advanced Templates page for the <$CLB_TFIFO/> macro.
