Re: Stripping font and style from clipboard, WAS: Re(2): Strange bug.
If you want to do this via AppleScript then just save the following as a script. applescript do shell command pbpaste | pbcopy /applescript -- Andy Fragen On Oct 14, 2006, at 3:14 PM, Andy Fragen wrote: There's a much simpler method. #!/bin/sh pbpaste | pbcopy I save the above shell script and converted to an small application using Platypus or some other app that will make a script into an application. Copy the text, run the app/script, then paste the text. Andy -- Andy Fragen On Oct 13, 2006, at 9:37 AM, Alan Harper wrote: I keep a script in my User Scripts Folder for just this purpose. I just changed it (from a version that was PPC only), so there might be some problems, but try creating the following script in AppleScript Editor try get the clipboard get result as text get result as record get «class ktxt» of result set the clipboard to result end try and save it as Strip Clip Style (or your favorite name) in ~/ Library/ Scripts. You can also paste into a style-less text editor like BBEdit and then copy.

Anyone know how to get pasted text in any app or specifically in Ragtime 6, OmniOutliner 3 and Word to adjust font, size and color to the context (paragraph)?

PowerMail quitting unexpectedly, unable to create/open database
Jerome: Disk verified; no problem there. PM was working for a while then suddenly unexpectedly quit again; now cannot reopen. Following your advice, I have tried to remove message db, address db, setup and server-side db from PowerMail Files but I find I cannot do so. When moving to anothr folder, they simply copy. It is impossible to try to reopen PM to see which, if any, is corrupted. What can you suggest? I did manage to export some folders to the PM Exchnge format but PM quit before I could import them to a new database. I'llhold them until able. Judith Beiss OS X 4.3.6 PM 5.2.2, Power Mac G4
Re: Copying address bug still there
Mikael Byström Fri, 13 Oct 2006 01:29:57 +0200 This one happens to me. And I agree, it's been there for ages. It doesn't happen for me. What versions are you guys running under? Of OS X and PowerMail that is. Any haxies or non-standard modifications to the OS installed? RAM? Free space on HD? OS X 10.4.8 US No haxies or modifications 1G RAM on my G5, 768K RAM on my PowerBook Ti Hundreds of gig free space on G5, 9G free space on TBTi
RE: PowerMail keeps quitting....
Jerome: Followed your suggestions but was totally unable to remove single items from the PowerMail Files folder: they didn't remove, just copied. Anyway, was able to save some important PM folders before PM quit again and would not reopen. Then, switched User Environment and set up again. All seems to be well, even managed to get my PM Address Book installed. I have not tried to import the database from the old PM Files as I suspect there's a problem there somewhere. Would you suggest I trash old folders, or just ignore them?
