Glipper will make GNOME much more usable
One key feature GNOME has lacked, in comparison to KDE, is a clipboard manager like KDE's Klipper. That's now about to change, thanks to the efforts of a project called "Glipper."
I'm a KDE man. I have been since 1998 when KDE 1.0 first appeared. GNOME was, and is, OK, but I wanted, and still want, a graphical interface that makes it easy for me to get to an operating system's nuts and bolts. In particular, one feature that KDE had, and GNOME didn't, was a multilevel clipboard manager.
When I write stories, or on those rare times when I still write code, I want to be able to not just cut or copy and paste the last item I selected, I want to be able to reference paragraphs and lines that I first put into my editing buffers after I copied more than a dozen other items into the buffer.
