Added a new tool to my collection of online tools called Queued Paste. It’s a small utility that will copy the contents of a text area one line at a time, with or without new-lines.

\n

I got the idea while I was setting up Stripe web-hook events. I would have a list of events to enable in a text file, but the Stripe’s dashboard only accepted a single event in their filter. So I had to go back and forth between my editor and Stripe, selecting a line, copying it, and pasting it in the filter.

\n

While this tool won’t get rid of the app switching, I no longer need to select and copy each individual line manually anymore. I can copy the entire block into the text-area, and when I enable “Copy lines”, the first line will be copied to the pasteboard. After pasting it, I can click “Advance” to copy the next line. If “Advance on focus” is enabled, I don’t even need to do that; simply switching to the browser should copy the next line.

\n

It’s not perfect: command-tabbing seems to cause the browser to loose paste permissions. And it would’ve been nice if I could just listen to paste events and advance to the next line without switching. Arguably, a proper app would be better for this. It doesn’t seem large enough to justify one, though. Maybe as a feature for an existing clipboard manager.

\n

Either way, I look forward to trying it out next time I’m dealing with web-hook events.
