Pastry 0.1.0
The first Pastry. A Swift rewrite of Flycut, built from nothing and carrying
over no Objective-C.
What it does
- Remembers what you copy, newest first, skipping clippings an application
marks as concealed. - A menu-bar menu with the recent clippings and a search field to filter them.
Choosing one pastes it where you were typing. - A bezel on ⇧⌘V: hold the modifiers and tap the key to walk back through
the history, let go to paste. Arrows,j/k, the number keys, Home, End
and the page keys all move; Return pastes, Delete removes, Escape dismisses. - The hotkey is yours to change, in Settings › Hotkeys, and takes effect
without a relaunch. - Clear All and Merge All, the latter joining the whole history into one
clipping. - The history survives a relaunch, kept in a directory only you can read.
Deleting anything reaches the disk at once rather than at the next quiet
moment. - Settings for how many clippings to remember and how many to show, and for
launching at login.
What it does not do, on purpose
No iCloud or cross-device sync, no favourites, no appearance settings, no iOS
app. Everything that was a preference in Flycut but had one sensible answer is
now that answer.
Needs
macOS 26 or later, and Accessibility permission to paste for you. Without that
permission a chosen clipping still goes on the clipboard.
Install: download Pastry-0.1.0.dmg, open it, drag Pastry to Applications.
The disk image is signed and notarized, so it opens without a Gatekeeper
warning. Pastry is a menu-bar app — it has no Dock icon, and quits from
Quit Pastry in its menu.
