Can somebody tell me how I can do this
I can't currently test under 1.7 or 1.8, but tell me how
this does:
-- Note: "<<" and ">>" are those, ya know, things. On a
-- U.S. keyboard, they are made by option-backslash
-- and shift-option-backslash.
-- DEBUG
set styled_text to the clipboard
--
styled_text --> STXT{ktxt:...,ksty:...}
set styled_text to styled_text as record
--
--> {<<class ktxt>>:"...",
-- <<class ksty>>:<<data styl00AAFF...>>}
set plain_text to <<class ktxt>> of styled_text
--
--> "...", the text
-- More simply put:
--
set plain_text to <<class ktxt>> of (styled_text as record)
