I don't seam to know how to use it, in windows I used to press Win+v when I'm on any input field and it opens the clip board with every thing I copied before so how to do that here, I already installed it but I don't know what to do and the docs weren't that helpful for me

If you press Ctrl + Alt + H, a history of you clipboard items will show up. It pretty much works like Win+v, but it doesn't paste items directly when you click on an item in the history, you need to press Ctrl + v to finally paste it.

You should also see an icon in you task-bar that is showing a clipboard. You can manage the shortcut's and other settings there

Edit: There are other default shortcut's as well: Ctrl + Alt + H: history (Win+v eqivalent) Ctrl + Alt + A: For actions that you previously defined in your settings Ctrl + Alt + F: Manage your clipboard (remove/add items, etc.) Ctrl + Alt + P: Menu

The Settings can be changed by a right-click on the icon of ClipIt and then choosing the settings option.
