PureText – Simple But Pure Genius
Posted by inVINCEble on October 19, 2006
As a web developer, I’m amazed I didn’t try to find this before now. Now that I have it, I sure I won’t be able to live without it during my working hours. There’s many times that I would copy text from a Word document and try to paste it into my HTML editor and getting a whole bunch of garbage asscociated with text formating. I would then open up NotePad, paste into it to clean the formating out, then copy it to paste it into the HTML editor. Let’s just say it’s a big hassle when you do this as many times a day as I do. PureText makes it much less complicated. PureText is a simple program that constantly runs and lives in the Window Tray. It just sits there waiting for you to cut or copy text. Once you copy a set of text, you activate the text cleanup process by hitting the Window Key & V Key. It will then clean up the formating and paste your text into the current application you are using.
