Get Plain Text2.0

why is this a paid for app ? Every system does this anyway. Copy and paste into Text Edit and hit Apple Shift T

Formatted text CMD+C CTRL+OPT+CMD+K (my own custom shortie) CMD+V unformatted text What more needs to be said?

What earthly reason could there possibly be for an application, whose SOLE purpose is to convert current clipboard contents to plain text, also creating a new folder within the user > Library > Containers folder that holds aliases to EVERY FOLDER within that user's own home folder? I call shenanigans! O-:> Now, I am not a code jockey, so perhaps there is a practical purpose for that, that is simply beyond my understanding.... However, discovering it immediately set off this old-fashioned MacHead control freak's internal "intruder alert!" klaxon and literally made my skin crawl as well. Needless to say (but I will), I root-searched my hard drive, and everything with "getplaintext" and/or "zipzapmac" in its name was tossed into ye olde Trash can and secure-emptied posthaste. Note also that AppCleaner did NOT detect the presence of this folder when I used it to trash the Get Plain Text app, so if you use it (or a similar utility) to uninstall software, you'd also need to bop into your Containers folder to grab and trash that sucker by hand. So-o-o, in summary, if you are thinking about taking this one for a test drive, proceed at your possible peril. (Or not. (-;)
