Code snippet of the day: Convert rich text into plain text.

When you copy from one program's document and paste in another program's document, you almost never want to keep the formatting. A simple example is when you copy from word or other document into the rich text control that. text uses on the new post page, you get a hunk of unwanted HTML around the pasted text. what a worry it is!
OK, maybe this program can help you out :)
