Copy PlainText by erosman

Copy PlainText is a tiny multi-process extension that removes the formatting from the selection before copying/pasting to/from the Clipboard.
Let me know if you want other functions added.

Note: None of my extensions contain any tracking, advertising or privacy infringement.

Features

• Multi Process Compatible
• Removes the formatting from the selection before saving to the Clipboard
  (Firefox restricts some functions on some URLs.)
  New Copy code which should work on all sites (v1.7)
• Removes the spaces from the start and end of the selection
• Removes multiple spaces
• 2 Keyboard Shortcuts: F7 and original Ctrl+Shift+F7 (FF53+) (v1.2)
• Custom Keyboard Shortcut (FF60+) (v1.8)
• Paste PlainText (v1.9)

Apple/Mac Users: if the shortcut keys do not work, try System Preferences - Keyboard - then check “Use all F1,F2, etc. keys as standard function keys."

Note: WebExtension API does not allow setting Copy PlainText as the default copy function of the browser at the moment. User defined keyboard shortcuts is available on FF60+ and added to v1.8.
