CloseReview for Copy As Plain Text by Antur
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Very useful tool. Almost perfect.
One more suggestion to further improve this:
While selecting text with the mouse for using it as pathname or search string, it often happens that one moves slightly up or down, accidently selecting the previous or next line together with the text.
Especially if it's empty, you don't notice the flawed selection and the selection appears to be empty when pasted into the search field of windows.
For this it would be fine to automatically remove not only empty _spaces_ around the text, but also linebreaks/empty lines around the text.
I am looking into this for a future update.
