Supports importing data from csv or text #570

This function conveniently allows me to import memos, such as contact email addresses, phone numbers, etc. Currently I can only achieve this through repeated copying, which is annoying. Thanks.

But as the contents are saved automatically anyway, why would you need to import more than once?

Leroy-X commented 10 months ago

@sjvudp For example, I have a lot of contacts or many clips, and I have to manually press Ctrl+C many times to copy them. Alternatively, I hope Ditto can support plaintext import or export, such as .txt or .csv files. Currently, it uses .dto files, and I cannot modify it (or create it) using an external text editor.

I also want this functionality. Can you make some simple line parser so txt file can be imported line by line. Thank you. PS: It is possible to solve this problem by running run additional powershell script after copy entire table to split it line by line. But latest windows dissallows powershell by default. Import is more streight forward solution.
