Does anyone else get annoyed by constant Alt-Tabbing when you have to copy multiple things from one place to another?

Like when you're filling out a form or moving 5 different fields from a browser into a document/config file, and you end up doing: Ctrl+C ➔ Alt+Tab ➔ Ctrl+V ➔ Alt+Tab... five times in a row.

I kept running into this frustration during work, so I decided to build a small Windows desktop tool called QPaste to fix it.

Basically, it adds a temporary "Queue Mode" to your clipboard when you hit F4. You can Ctrl+C multiple things sequentially in one go, switch over to your destination window, and just hit Ctrl+V multiple times. It automatically pastes everything in the exact order you copied it (First-In, First-Out). Once the queue clears out, your normal copy-paste behavior goes right back to default.

It’s completely open-source, lightweight, and built using Python & PyQt6 as an everyday tool. If you deal with form filling or repetitive data entry or even day-to-day tasks, check it out and let me know your thoughts or feedback! i would love to hear.
