PlugIns:

Below is a list of the PlugIns that initially come with QuickNote and what they do.  PlugIns only work on the current text selected.

• Capitalize Sentences
   Will capitalize the first letter of the first word of each sentence.

• Capitalize Words
   Will Capitalize The First Letter Of Each Word.

• Convert %Hex [e.g., %09 = Tab]
   This will convert any hex symbols (e.g., “%09”, “%0D”, “%0A”, etc.) into the appropriate character (e.g., “%09” = the tab character, “%0D” = the return character, “%0A” = the linefeed character).  This is useful if you receive MIME encoded email which will convert certain characters into the hex symbols.

• Convert CRs to CR/LFs
   Will convert every CR (the return character) into a CR/LF (return/line feed) character combination for system such as DOS that use the CR/LF in text files.

• Convert CRs to LFs
   Will convert every CR (the return character) into a LF (line feed) character for system such as DOS that use line feeds in text files.

• Convert LFs to CRs
   Will convert every LF (line feed) into a CR (the return character) character for converting text from systems such as DOS that use line feeds in text files.

• Convert spaces to 1 space
   Will convert multiple spaces into one space.

• Make lowercase
   Will convert selected text to all lowercase.

• Make Smart Quotes
   Will convert any " or ' characters into a “” or ‘’ character.

• Make Smart Quotes Dumb
   Will convert any “” or ‘’ characters into a " or ' character.

• Make UPPERCASE
   Will convert selected text to all UPPERCASE.

• Phone Letters to Numbers
      Will convert any uppercase characters into numbers for phone dialing (e.g., 1-800-CALL-MEE will be converted to 1-800-2255-633).

• Phone Number Dialer
   This will produce tones that can actually dial a phone number for you using the internal speaker of your Macintosh (or external speakers if you have any).  You must hold the mouth piece of your phone close to the speaker of your Macintosh to be able to use this feature.  A phone number will dial only if the first character selected is a number.  Also, the comma character will pause dialing for one second.

• Strip <html tags>
   This is useful if you receive email and your email program does not know how to display html tags sometimes sent via email.  Basically, it removes any text between and including the < and > characters.  Here’s an example:

“<HTML><PRE><BODY BGCOLOR="#000000"><FONT COLOR="#00FFFF" SIZE=3>
Hello!  How are you today?
</FONT><FONT  COLOR="#000000" SIZE=3>”

after selecting the text above, and running the Strip <html tags> on it you would get this:

“
Hello!  How are you today?
”

• Strip Control Characters
   Will remove any characters with an ASCII value less than 32 (except for tabs, returns and form feeds).

• Strip CR/LFs
   Will remove any line feed characters and will then follow the same rules as Strip CRs (defined below).

• Strip CRs
   Will remove the return characters and replace them with spaces only if the next line after a CR does not begin with a space or tab character (and if there are at least 40 characters in the line before the CR).  You can change the Minimum Line Length from 40 to whatever you like if you hold down the option key while selecting this PlugIn. 

• Strip Leading Spaces
   Will remove any spaces from the beginnings of any lines in the selected text.

• Strip LFs
   Will remove any line feed characters from the selected text.
