Clipboard Washer

by Laurent Cozic

Clipboard Washer's simple aim is to remove the formatting of any text your drop on it. You can drag and drop text from any application that supports it (Word, Acrobat, and Internet Explorer among others).

It simplifies the copy-and-pasting operations from one "rich-text" application to another. No need to do a "Paste special" in Word or to copy the text first in Notepad and then in Word. Clipboard Washer will make sure that the final text you get is unformatted.

    The options allow scaling! A near-perfect app! My only wish is there was a hotkey to perform the wash function (currently the hotkey disables/enables the widget itself).

    Great little util. Count me as one of the ones who kept a little notepad window open and did the cut/paste thing *and* also added a "paste special" button to MS Word's toolbars, all in an effort to strip the formatting from the clipboard.

    Being able to double-click to strip the formatting is great (faster than dragging/dropping and less invasive than the full-auto setting).

    My one (minor) suggestion is to make it smaller (or give a scaling option): it's nearly as large as my cpu and bandwidth monitors combined.

    I LOVE this widget. As a Web designer I use it every few minutes to clean text up from Word documents before using it in Dreamweaver. Bless this simple, effective tool!

    Great job.
    Very useful. :)
    Saves me a lot of hassle with copy and pasting and significantly reduced my frustration with having to edit copied text.

    Love it.

    Thanks!
