Hey folks. One of my Windows pet peeves is that it always copies formatting whenever you use Control-C to copy text. I almost never want to paste formatting anywhere. In fact, sometimes the formatting interferes and it wastes time because I have to either remove it, or remember to first paste in TextPad and then copy again from there.

I was thinking of writing a Windows plugin to only paste raw-text, but it looks like someone named Steve Miller has already come up with one. It’s called PureText. You can download it here:

It’s available from the Microsoft Store, or from that link.

Unfortunately, you can’t replace Control-V as the standard Hotkey for PureText, as this conflicts with Windows. You can use Win or Alt.
