I’m constantly moving data and text between MS Office apps or for web content. Having to strip-out formatting was just another hassle be it “Paste Special” (extra mouse-clicking) or pasting into another text app only having to re-copy and paste somewhere else. This little goodie does exactly what I was hoping it would do - copy formatted text or data (i.e. from a website (html) or Excel spreadsheet) and when pasted - plain text. Period. If I want to copy and paste with formatting - I simply quit the Paste Plain Text app. What would be nice if there was a right-mouse click option where I could opt to paste formatted text/data without having to quit the app.

It turns out that being able to clear out the style of any text I select from a web page or Word document (or whatever) in order to paste it into another document is extremely handy!The app works flawlessly, and enables you to set it such that it will clear out the style of what you copy to the clipboard by default or do it manually by accessing the app itself, so it can work for any type of scenario.It sounds minor, but turns out this capability makes things much simpler for anyone who does a lot of cut-and-paste with text

Absolutely beats doing lots of highlighing and deleting of text to clean up a text capture. Would be nice if one could specify specific words or phrases to be deleted in addition to standard now used. This would allow a tool that is tailorable to one’s own reading and capturing interests. In my case, the ability to delete the word Advertisement would make this work perfectly for my needs. A darned nice thing still!

There aren't many apps out there for stripping formatting from the clipboard, so I really wish this one did what I want: Give the user control over *when* the formatting is stripped. I'm sure this is great for users who *do* want automatic format stripping 100% of the time. What *I* want a keyboard shortcut to use for stripping formatting *when I so choose.* Since there's only been one update of this app in 3 years, I'm not holding out hope. (I would have contacted the devs to ask about this, but this is where the Feedback link goes, and there's no contact info on their site, so this is what you get.)
