Product Description:

Plain Clip Plug is a plugin for Spark (a very nice freeware hotkey application) which removes any formatting from text which is on the clipboard. It is basically identical to Plain Clip, a freeware stand-alone application I wrote for very same purpose. As Plain Clip is intended to be used with hotkey applications such as Spark, incorporating its functionality into a Spark plugin was a logical step.

In contrast to the standalone application, the plugin version offers an additional feature: it supports sending an emulated Command-V keystroke (in other words: "Paste") and can thus be used to create a "Paste unstyled" shortcut that should work anywhere where you can use Command-V to insert text from the clipboard.

What's new in this version:

Recompiled the plugin as a Universal Binary

I copy and paste a great deal into emails and documents. Pasting the style is a useful feature, but many times I don't want the text formatting from the original to be included when I paste. So I can either a) paste it into my document and then spend time selecting all the right font, color, and size options, or b) open a blank text-only document in TextEdit, paste, and re-copy the unformatted text which is ready to be pasted into my document.

With Plain Clip, not anymore. It strips all the text formatting for text *already in the clipboard,* which means that you don't have to configure anything, you don't have to change any settings, and you don't have to do a lot of legwork. Simply copy, launch Plain Clip (I use Quicksilver for the task), and voila: unformatted text that is ready to paste!

Easy to use. Imminently useful. Small download. And free. What's not to like?

I've been trying to visit this developer's website for a few weeks now I'm having no luck.
