Ahoy!
We will deploy a new feature to Singularity in the very near future (today or tomorrow) which will allow you to import text based fittings using the EFT (EVE Fitting Tool) format with just 1 click, for example from EFT, Pyfa killboards, Battleclinic, etc. Here is how it's done:
1. Copy the fitting text to your clipboard
2. Go to your client, open the fittings window
3. Click on 'Browse'
4. Click the little icon in the bottom center that looks like 2 papers
5. Profit!
This feature does not care about text formatting other than that the modules are all separated by line breaks.
Please try the feature out and leave any feedback you might have in this thread.
Fly safe!

this is a very useful feature that is very well hidden.
i don't like hidden features.
can't the client just monitor the clipboard ?
it's 4 clicks btw:
1. open client
2. open fittings
3. click browse
4. click the paper icon
the chance of someone stumbling upon this is close to zero.

Client monitoring clipboard I don't like, as my clipboard often has some rather private things on it. |

I don't think it needs to be presented in cat-sized red letters. It's a feature for importing fittings from a third-party tool that not everyone uses (but most certainly should use), so the existence of the feature should be mentioned in the context of those third party tools IMO. |

Stumbling upon it? There will be a button for it in the browse window. I assume there will be a tooltip too. |

Nice :) I like this a lot.
Of course, if your corporation or alliance were to be using Fleet-Up for fittings then you could do this now by clicking Fitting > Open In Game > Save using the IGB. #shameless

Two questions:
1) Does this feature handle EFT fits that are not in the current client language? Can I paste English EFT-format fits into a Japanese or French client? (the current XML import/export does not handle this terribly well)
2) Would it be possible to support "control-V" instead-of/in-addition-to the little icon? |

Worst reasoning ever. EFT monitoring the clipboard does not make it ok for EVE to do the same. There are other tools besides EFT out there as well. |

Very doubtful. I use my fitting browser very often. In fact, I've set it to Ctrl+F shortcut (ctrl+alt+f is what I set the FPS monitor to), so importing a copied fit is exactly one click for me.
No matter how I get to it, I know I'm not anywhere close to the only person who makes use of the browse fitting window. It's going to be a button right there. I do not see this as hidden at all. |

1) It only supports importing fits in English, but should work for any localized client (please let us know if it doesn't, because it worked for me )
2) Could be looked into

this is really good and will save a lot of time. I don't think it's too hidden at all and anyone who does is a whiny baby.

Will we be able to export fittings in the same format using the clipboard? Both saved fittings and the window that opens from linked fittings.

There is no way CCP can incorporate all the different needs that are met by eft, pyfa, evehq, fleet-up, null-sec.com, and o.smium.org -- just to name six fitting tools. People have their preferences, and it is much more powerful for CCP to make it easy to import/export than it is to meet those needs in a single tool.

Hidden Feature
If you don't delete all your current fits before the next patch, they will all be automatically deleted following the patch. |

Which doesn't happen. You have to actively click the button for the game client to look into your clipboard. If you don't click it, nothing is pasted (and even if you do, it's not just sent to the server).
Also, might be news to you, but every program running your computer is able to access your clipboard at any time. It doesn't even have to ask for permission (excluding Windows 8.1 apps). Your web browser might ask for permissions for web pages, but that's just a security feature only implemented there.
Instead of looking in your clipboard, the eve client could just look through your My Documents folder or something else on your HDDs. If you really think some program might spy on you, just because it gets paste functionality, then you should really better try to uninstall the game or better stop using your computer (and mobile phone, TV, etc.) alltogether.

1. you can pick which sites you trust.
2. sadly JS interaction with the client requires sites to be trusted. |
