Getting Started
After the Installation, Smartclip will either get started by the installer or you can start it manually. Notice that Smartclip starts in the background. On first startup, Smartclip might take a while to boot, as it is indexing the applications on your computer. This may take up to a couple of minutes.
To open Smartclip you can either right-click the Icon in the Taskbar and choose Show
or you can use the predefined keymaps to open specific Plugins directly:

Smartclip is an extensible Launcher that consists of a prompt or search input at the top and a plugin view at the bottom, that is occupied by the currently activated plugin. You can see which plugin is currently activated on the very left of the search bar. To go back to the default plugin (currently set to the clipboard manager), you can simply press return while the caret is at the very front. To navigate to different plugins from the default plugin, simply type in the ID of the desired plugin followed by a Space
