Every time I find it cumbersome to search for clipboard files using Everything on the computer, I tried implementing a simple and quick search function using AutoHotKey: Hold down Ctrl, double-click the ‘C’ key (press Ctrl+C twice), and it automatically invokes an Everything search for the currently copied content (text only, of course). If it’s not found on Everything, use Ctrl+Enter to perform a Google search
; Double-press Ctrl+C to invoke a local search using Everything; Inside Everything, CTRL+Enter triggers a Google search
DoublePress()
{
static pressed1 = 0
if pressed1 and A_TimeSincePriorHotkey <= 500
{
pressed1 = 0
run C:\Program Files\Everything\Everything.exe -search "%Clipboard%"
}
else
pressed1 = 1
}
~^C::DoublePress()
return
If you need to perform a direct search without enabling Everything, you can also use Alt+Win+G to launch
!#g::
Send ^c
Run http://www.google.com/search?q=%clipboard%
return
