Pbcopy/pbpaste are huge productivity boosters for me
- nier 3y agoPb stands for pasteboard and not for lead. :D http://www.nextcomputers.org/NeXTfiles/Docs/NeXTStep/3.3/nd/GeneralRef/02_ApplicationKit/Classes/Pasteboard.htmld/index.html http://www.nextcomputers.org/NeXTfiles/Docs/NeXTStep/3.3/nd/...
- just_steve_h 3y agoI have a shell alias so I can just type pb to do pbpaste|pbcopy - easiest way I’ve found to strip formatting and get plain text.
- wtallis 3y agoIt's a little awkward, but Cmd-Opt-Shift-V is "Paste and Match Style" aka "paste as plain text".
- blairbeckwith 3y agoPro-tip (at least for me): control (^) doesn't change this, so you can just hold all the modifier keys rather than trying to remember which 3 let you paste as plain text.
