The fork on https://github.com/wilfz/CLCL contains all features and fixes since 2024:

• User interface in English, Japaneses, German, and Ukrainian
• Switch user interface language in option's Viewer tab and save in CLCL.ini (works only if Windows version is Vista or newer)
• Added clipboard access delay setting (merge from Koichi-Kobayashi)
• OS version check with recommended method (merge from Koichi-Kobayashi)
• Display item title of unprintable characters as abbreviation or ASCII-Code (Issue nakkag#23)
• Added context menu: Show (only current item) as binary
• English documentation as HTML Help in Viewer menu
• Expand environment variables in tool paths (issue nakkag#22)
• Installer optionally includes plugins
• Search and replace with regular expressions (tool_clip plugin)
• Merged Japanese and English Plugin Versions
• Plugins updated to current OS (with plugins' ini files in %LOCALAPPDATA%\clcl, adjacent to clcl.ini)

setup_clcl_2_1_5.exe may issue a warning when started. This does not imply a threat, but is due to the fact that as a private developer I cannot afford to purchase a certificate to sign the binary for an open source project.

Alternatively you can download clcl_2_1_5.zip and unpack into a folder of your choice and start clcl.exe from there. The content of the zip is the same as the directory created by the installer, but the installer also creates Start Menu items and optionally a desktop item.

Both packages include binaries of some useful plugins from https://nakka.com/soft/clcl/index_eng.html.
tool_clip.dll is an additional plugin from https://github.com/wilfz/CLCL-tool_clip.
All plugins have been reworked for current operating system.

The main program and the plugins are compiled with the latest platform toolset v143.

CLCL.html has been added as help file to explain the use of CLCL.
