    There are two useful functions in EmEditor Help
    1. Clipboard Data history
    Refer to EmEditor Help – Macro Reference – clipboardData Object – getData
    This macro “displays the clipboard history, and selecting an item will insert that text.”
    It much better than use Cycle Clipboard Ring command (CTRL+SHIFT+V).
    Because if I have more than 3 or 4 recently copied items, it will be not easy to remember and paste what I need.
    Although we can found another similar function in menu Tools – All Commands – Edit – Paste, but this way is in deep menu, and can not set hotkey.
    So, suggest to add this macro as default, or create a new Clipboard Data Bar in the right or left side for more convenient.

    2. Google search
    Refer to EmEditor Help – Frequently Asked Questions – Tools – How can I do a Google search…
    Suggest add this useful function in the default External Tools bar.

    The “Paste Recent” command is even better than macro, because it can use Shortcut to select which item for paste.
    But it can not set hotkey directly, after study, I got workaround solution:
    1. Use Customize Menus, specify “Paste Recent” command in “User Menu (2)”.
    2. Set hotkey for “User Menu (2)”.

    Hope it can set hotkey for “Paste Recent” command in the future.
    Thanks.
