snippet manager

Hi,

I have heard a software called docbuilder (commercial, based on msOffice I think) which can display a list of snippets (formated text) to be easily inserted whereever you want in any document.

1) Does anyone know of such a plugin for ooo: something like a sidebar with a tree and the list of existing paragraphs which can be chosen by simple click.

Thanks for any hint.

François

Thank you Foxcole,

I will give a try to your software, which might be interesting because I often switch from ms-office to ooo.

What I was considering was more an extension of the autotext tool: a sidebar tree to see all the autotext, and maybe there different versions. All these snippets need absolutely to keep there formatting (font color, alignement, titles, bullet lists...) I have checked the autotext: fields from the data source can also be used.

I download clipguru to check up to where it can carry me.

Thanks again for the tip.
