Reformat — SM

Reformat is a lightweight tool that cleans up selected text directly inside input fields, text areas, and editable content on any web page.

Just select some text, trigger the reformat action, and the extension instantly transforms it into a clean, URL- and filename-friendly string.

— WHAT IT DOES —

• Converts text to lowercase
• Replaces spaces (and multiple spaces) with a single hyphen "-"
• Removes quotes and apostrophes: " ' ` « » “ ” ‘ ’
• Removes special characters: ! ? , . ; % : $ & * @ ( ) =
• Removes slashes and pipes: \ / |
• Collapses repeated hyphens into a single hyphen

— PERFECT FOR —

• Creating URL slugs
• Generating clean filenames
• Building IDs, tags, and handles
• Quickly normalizing text without leaving the page

— HOW IT WORKS —

Reformat works in standard input fields, text areas, and contenteditable elements. Your text never leaves your browser — all processing happens locally, and nothing is collected or sent anywhere.

Simple, fast, and privacy-friendly.
