In our previous blog posts, we looked at how you can share your clips via a shared folder on your local network, or via Subversion both locally or over the internet.

During FileMaker Devcon in San Francisco we received a lot of positive feedback for Clip Manager and we wish to thank all of you who were there for their valuable input. Many among you are using Clip Manager for copy-and-pasting of Custom Functions into FileMaker. Some of you admitted they would love to use Clip Manager more, but didn’t figured out yet how to get started with this.
That's why we decided to launch a new series of posts called 'Clip Manager 101'. These posts are aimed squarely at those who are new to the Clip Manager. We’ll also be sharing some tips and trick for people already familiar with Clip Manager.
If you have any suggestions, questions or a fabulous trick that you would like to share, leave us a note at info@myfmbutler.com.

We wanted to give everyone an update on the compatibility status of our products with Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard:
Initial testing with the latest versions of our plug-ins (DoSQL, DoScript, PrinterSwitch), have not shown any compatibility issues with FileMaker 10 on Snow Leopard.
We expect AutoSender 2.5.5 to work fine with FileMaker Server 10, once the 10.0v2 upgrade is made available by FileMaker.
The latest version of Clip Manager (3.1.3) has been tested and works fine.
There are some issues with our FileMaker to vCal XSLT and time zones in Snow Leopard. We hope to address this in an update in the next couple of weeks.
If you do encounter any issues with one of our products on Mac OS X Snow Leopard, please let us know at http://myfmbutler.com/support
