Pass Trigger;
Emit Definition
A swift, stubbornly lightweight, native text-substitution utility.
Native UI
Pasted is designed intentionally and stubbornly for a minimal footprint on system resources. It is written entirely in Object Pascal and built using the Lazarus IDE and the Free Pascal Compiler. It therefore offers a familiar, intuitive, and native Graphical User Interface.
Privacy First
As it requires continuous monitoring of keystrokes, Pasted is deeply privacy-conscious. It operates entirely offline using an SQLite3 database. Data can be backed up to and restored from a db file, and triggers can be imported and exported as json for sharing.
System-wide
Triggers resolve on almost all applications without per-app setup.
Dynamic Content
Pasted supports dynamic, system-clock-dependent variables. Variables wrapped in ${} are customisable to various date, time, and timestamp formats and resolve to the exact local date-time upon execution.
Trigger Management
Triggers can be easily created and categorised into collections for tidy organisation.
Quick Search
Pasted runs quietly in the background, and its main interface rarely demands interaction. The Quick Search can be called from anywhere system-wide using Alt + ; to swiftly find forgotten triggers and insert them directly into an active text field.
Free and Open-Source
Pasted is free and open-source, respecting the user’s freedom to run and modify it. It is released under the BSD 3-Clause License, and is provided “as is”, without any warranties. The codebase is available on GitHub. See third-party notices for details on third-party libraries and resources used, and the acknowledgements section in the README for due credits.
