Description ewer 2013-02-12 08:56:18 UTC
NetBeans has the valuable feature to have a clipboard history which is accessible by <Ctrl>-<Shift>-d. 

On every copy the new fragment is inserted to the front of the list and 
everything else is moving backwards. 

I have often the case, to have a frequently used item in the history. 
Then I paste this fragment, copy some other parts and afterwards use this fragment again. This happens in a cycle. But the reused fragment moves always further backwards. For me it would be an advantage if every paste from the history moves this item to the front again, so that it doesn't skipt from the list.
