TrimTxT 1.0 Features

Main features:

• TrimTxT removes undesired NewLine (CR-LF = CarReturn+LineFeed) characters AND leading spaces from .TXT files or from the TEXT content of the clipboard.
• Optionally, TrimTXT converts the very disturbing codes like =20 or =FC to their correct characters (here: space and ü), and removes "soft" line ending "="s. These codes occurs in some e-mails, for in example e-mails generated by Novell GroupWise 4.1 on Windows NT.
• TrimTxT handles the ">" characters (or other strings like RR>) marking "reply to" at the start of some lines in e-mails. Multiple occurrences like ">> > " are handled, too.
• TrimTxT strips off all formatting codes (bold, italics, tab settings, etc.). This is sometimes useful when converting texts from one programme to another. Here remains of formatting codes sometimes makes a lot of problems, for example when copying texts from MS Word or WordPerfect to PageMaker.
• After the conversion, you can edit the text in TrimTxT.
• Even a number of non-PC text formats are converted to proper PC formatted text.
• TrimTxT can convert HTML (files or clipboard content) to clear text. It removes the HTML tags and the randomly placed NewLines from an HTML formatted text, and inserts correct NewLines on the proper places directed by the HTML tags, only. Bulleted and numbered lists, etc. are handled, too. Optionally, it can insert formatting guidelines ("tags") marked in {}, handling for example tables.

Special features:

• If changing the options, the original text is immediately restored and then converted with the new options setting. This makes it possible to experiment with the options until you have found the optimal conversion. By using the Marked text only mode you can even use different options on different parts of the text.
• Lots of short-cuts like Ctrl-U (= display the original text).

The converted text is placed in the Windows clipboard, ready to be pasted into your application. You can also save it to a file.
