I'm leaving it here in case there is any code that could still be useful to others. Check out the release notes for a little more information if you'd like: https://github.com/hisaac/PlainPasta/releases/tag/1.3.0\n\nIf you're looking for something like Plain Pasta that _is_ still being developed, I'll direct you to the excellent [Pure Paste](https://sindresorhus.com/pure-paste) by [@sindresorhus](https://github.com/sindresorhus). It does everything I had hoped for Plain Pasta to do someday, and then some.\n\nI was in the process of working on a major update to the app. I've kept that work in a separate branch here for reference purposes: [2.0.0-beta](https://github.com/hisaac/PlainPasta/tree/2.0.0-beta)\n\n👋\n\n## Demonstration\n\nPlain Pasta sits in your menu bar, and watches your clipboard for text, removes any styling from the text, and puts plaintext back on your clipboard.\n\nI made this app because I rarely want styling to be copied to my clipboard. When I copy text, all I want is the text.\n\nDownload the most recent version of Plain Pasta from the [Mac App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/plain-pasta/id1467796430).\n\n### Without Plain Pasta\n\n\u003cfigure\u003e\n\t\u003ca href=\"./docs/without-plain-pasta.gif\"\u003e\n\t\t\u003cimg src=\"./docs/without-plain-pasta.gif\" alt=\"A screen recording of text and style being copy/pasted\" /\u003e\n\t\u003c/a\u003e\n\t\u003cfigcaption\u003e\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003eCopy/Pasting styled text takes both the text \u003cem\u003eand\u003c/em\u003e the styling with it\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/figcaption\u003e\n\u003c/figure\u003e\n\n### With Plain Pasta\n\n\u003cfigure\u003e\n\t\u003ca href=\"./docs/with-plain-pasta.gif\"\u003e\n\t\t\u003cimg src=\"./docs/with-plain-pasta.gif\" width=\"100%\" alt=\"A screen recording of text being copy/pasted without its styling\" /\u003e\n\t\u003c/a\u003e\n\t\u003cfigcaption\u003e\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003eCopy/Pasting styled text \u003cem\u003ewith\u003c/em\u003e Plain Pasta enabled only pastes the text itself, no styling\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/figcaption\u003e\n\u003c/figure\u003e\n\n## Contributing\n\nPRs are more than welcome!\n\nTo get up and running, you'll need to clone this repo, and then initialize the [`VerifyNoBS`](https://github.com/olofhellman/VerifyNoBS) submodule using:\n\n```\ngit submodule update --init\n```\n\n## Attribution\n\nPlain Pasta was inspired by another app called [FormatMatch](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/formatmatch/id445211988?mt=12) by [Robert Wessels](http://www.robertwessels.com).\n\nI've used FormatMatch for many years. I would've happily used it for many more years to come, but the app hasn't been updated for over 6 years, and Robert Wessel's website is no longer live. I've been concerned for the continued life of the app, so I finally decided to take the time to write a new version using modern technologies.\n\n- Icon image is [Noodles by Paolo Valzania from the Noun Project](https://thenounproject.com/search/?q=noodle\u0026i=1681744)\n- Clipboard monitoring code based on [klipsustreamer](https://github.com/lahdekorpi/klipsustreamer) by [Toni Lähdekorpi](https://github.com/lahdekorpi)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhisaac%2FPlainPasta","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fhisaac%2FPlainPasta","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhisaac%2FPlainPasta/lists"}
