Welcome to ClipAlias!
ClipAlias adds an alias to the Clipboard to your Apple Menu, giving you access to the Clipboard from within most applications (I say "most" because some apps don't allow you access to the Clipboard - there's nothing I can do about that).
You can, of course, do it yourself: open your System Folder, find the Clipboard, and put an alias into your Apple Menu Items folder: ClipAlias simply does the donkeywork for you, faster than you can. Take it or leave it.
To use ClipAlias, simply run it (as in doubleclick, okay?).
System Requirements
Any Mac running system 7.5 or higher; AppleScript.
ClipAlias was compiled with AppleScript 1.3.4 under MacOS 8.5.1 - if it won't run on your machine, try this:
1) Open it with the Script Editor (should be in the AppleScript folder, in the Apple Extras folder)
2) Change something (just typing a space will do)...
3) ...then change it back (if you typed a space, delete it)
4) Click the "Check Syntax" button (should be top right on the Script Editor window)
5) Save it.
This should recompile ClipAlias to run on your system.
