but if you want a honest opinion: Butler does these things far far
better than Quicksilver. I personally use Butler for pasting text.

You mean you use QS AND Butler !?!
In that case wouldn't it be simple to just use a clipboard manager?
no, u r wrong. i dont use butler just for managing my clipboard. QS
does not have trigger scoping (its broken). So it does not have butler
like feature of enabling or disabling triggers for certain apps. So,
all diehard quicksilver users use three, four and five key triggers so
that they dont conflict with other applications. Hence, i use Butler
not just for clipboard but also for launching applescripts, files,
applications etc

To just paste a recent clipboard history item, bring up the clipboard
history window by any of various methods (a trigger is probably a
good
idea) and then press the number of the item you want to paste. It
takes two keystrokes, but you get a greater range of options.

Yes but that will move my actual clipboard history.
Whats good about trigger is that it's 1 shortcut... or maybe I'm just
too used to have 3 clipboards.
Conclusion : You can't do it with QS (is that definitively right?)
i leave this question to be answered by the experts.
