Global Copy Nodes

Global Copy Nodes creates a global copy buffer for nodes that can be used across different sessions, and even different instances of Blender.

This add-on removes the need to save the node data manually. A simple copy and paste will do the trick!

Global Copy Nodes keeps references to data-blocks ensuring there is no data loss.
