Description

This extension is not actively maintained but is very practical.

The ClipUpload extension is similar to the MsUpload extension with the exception that it takes the files to be uploaded from the clipboard. It uses "InlineAttachment" to perform its task.

Since version 1.3.0 of January 17, 2017 the browsers Chrome, Firefox and Opera are supported.
