Shift + control + V makes this bot obsolete
It doesn't work in all apps.
For those instances, I paste + cut in my browsers url bar (unless multiline, then notepad)
For regular users the url bar is sent to Google. Be sure to disable that before making it a habbit.
Does that maintain paragraph breaks?
Exactly. Why open another app?
History
You're the only program that loads quickly enough on my pile of junk machine to write down my impulsive ADHD ideas before I forget them so I can forget to read them later
have you considered a notebook next to your keyboard, so you can jot down those ADHD ideas in a pinch?
adhd ideas are fast, too fast for handwriting. sometimes even typing is barely fast enough
one day when we invent thought -> text machine neurotypicals will finally be able to see the speed of an adhd brain that "just had a great idea", and they shall wonder how can our brains be so fast, but seemingly never when they should
Typing hurts my wrist less than physically writing it down
I have, but I also have a touch of dysgraphia, so my handwriting is serviceable but really slow (like, the 2d spatial relation skills of being able to keep the different bits of letters proportioned to each other takes active concentration for me), whereas I can use keyboard without thinking about it
Incidentally, the fact that cursive was a graded subject for me in elementary school that almost led to me getting held back a grade probably played a big part in who I grew up to be (i.e. someone who usually doesn't like authority figures but does like misfits and outcasts)
Notepad++ for me since opening the files i need to in regular notepad freezes the fucker xd
CTRL + SHIFT + V in Windows pastes without formatting
It works 50% of the time
It depends on how the app you were using was written. If it was written correctly, it'll work, if not, blame the company that made it (especially when it's Microsoft themselves!).
Power Toys has a feature that will force it to work in every app, I highly recommend it! There's all sorts of helpful features in Power Toys.
I do this all the time in Fedora.
notepad++ is better.
I love it too, but it takes longer to open, and wants to update its self every time I open it. If I just want a plain text editor I still use plain notepad. I save ++ for when I need some special features.
notepad++ doesn't nag me about updates all the time. I open mine very frequently to manage my onetab tabs
SO much better.
CTRL + SHIFT + V
For apps that support it. Not even the whole Microsoft suite does.
Before even typing "notepad" after hitting Win+R, I realised I could just paste my text directly into the run dialog and re-copy it.
For one liners, this is the way.
copying format should be the thing that takes an extra keystroke, not pasting without it
Heeey Notepad has Copilot included now! I wonder why they ruin the app.
Watch microsoft "update" notepad to ruin this feature..
@cm0002 OMG that is what I use it for on windows at work.
Who the hell decided the formatting should be part of the copy anyhow.@RueNahcMohr @cm0002 or when the button Copy/Past without formatting don't exist
Powertoys has a plaintext paste
Just use shift+Ctrl+V for that.
