Copy and paste plaintext to read it nicely!

You can remove white-space from lines, manipulate new lines and add prefixes / suffixes as well.

It's supposed to give you the bare minimum tools to do 90% of what you want to do with plaintext, like converting text into markdown quotes, or processing chat records copied from WhatsApp or discord.

I do think that everyone should make some personalized version of this themselves though. I love plaintext and I believe with the right tools you can do so much just with it.

Any suggestions welcomed!

There have been various readers / reading modes for broader usage. See Unclutter @ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33718850
