Parsnips gives you a place to store bits of useful text and the ability to easily retrieve them later. With an easy drag and drop interface, it provides you with a quick storage and retrieval system. Select the text you want to save and drag it to the program. It automatically creates an "item" for the information and saves it for later retrieval. You can also give the item a title, an associated URL, or assign keywords to it.

  • Latest Changes

    - Improved the HTML parser that is used for extracting text from web pages. Now captured web pages no longer show javascript or style sheet information in the text. Also improved error handling so you don't get extraneous ">" characters in the text

    - Implemented Services on Mac OS X. You can now use the Services menu in another application to send the application's selection to Parsnips

    - Added "Tip Windows" that are shown before executing certain non-obvious commands. These tips explain a bit about what the command does. Each tip window had a checkbox to prevent it from being shown again

    - Better "Quick Start" information is now displayed in the Results Pane when there are no items in the database

    - New preference for setting the main window's background color. By default Parsnips now has a non-standard background coloe. You can turn this off in the Preferences

    - In previous versions, if you had an item you were editing then and did an operation that diplayed a new item, you would be shown a dialog with choices to Cancel or Discard Changes. in the new version you are also given the option of saving the changes bef
