When copying text from one rich text editor to another, the original format will be preserved by the Windows clipboard. While this behaviour might be wanted in some scenarios, sometimes - when copying from Microsoft Word to a CMS backend for example - copying just the contents without the format would be the preferred way.

This is where stripClip comes in: a lightweight (32kb) application that - when active - strips the format from text the moment the text is copied to the clipboard.
backupDB is a PHP script to dump a MySQL database and send the dump to a given e-mail for backup purposes.
