This is a very handy utility for just moving text between applications and cutting off the formatting cruft that messes things up. When I'm copying a number from Word into Excel or code from Eclipse to Outlook I almost always just want the text. The formatting from the originating application is no use in the target application. Before I had to use tedious options such as paste special or do the paste then select and reformat the text in the new application.
It turns out this is not necessary thanks to PureText. With PureText I copy in the usual way then use Windows+V to paste and all that gets pasted is the text without the formatting. Slick. Thanks for doing this Steve Miller.
