    1. [Pennington-L] CLEANER
    2. Here is something I wanted to share with you. I know it's off topic in that it isn't about a family line. But this will clean copies to sent to the list without a bunch of >>>>>>>. Read on, download and soon we'll have the emailers cleaning up the messages they send us. This is something I use many times each day. Not only is it useful and eliminates frustration, it's totally free. You know the emails you receive that look like this.... > Subject: Aligator Shoes > > > A young blonde was on vacation in the depths of Louisiana. > > > She wanted a pair of genuine alligator shoes in the worst > > > way, but was very reluctant to pay the high prices the local > > > vendors were asking. > > > > > > After becoming very frustrated with the "no haggle" attitude of > > > one of the shopkeepers, the blonde shouted, "Maybe I'll just > > > go out and catch my own alligator so I can get a pair of > > > shoes at a reasonable price!" Well, I highlight the joke (etc) then click edit and click on cut then paste it on The Cleaner. I click on clean and instanteously it looks like this..... ~~~~ Subject: Aligator Shoes A young blonde was on vacation in the depths of Louisiana. She wanted a pair of genuine alligator shoes in the worst way, but was very reluctant to pay the high prices the local vendors were asking. After becoming very frustrated with the "no haggle" attitude of one of the shopkeepers, the blonde shouted, "Maybe I'll just go out and catch my own alligator so I can get a pair of shoes at a reasonable price!" ~~ It will already be highlighted so I click edit then cut again and paste it on a clean email. Then I sent it on to you guys. This is the information that came on an emails about it. It quickly downloads and I know you'll like it...........Lois For those who don't know what the heck "The Cleaner" is, it's a freeware e-mail reformatting program. It gets rid of all those annoying carets (>>>) on forwarded e-mail and turns it into something more readable. To make things even better, I've taken the program and it's associated "Read Me" file and wrapped it up in a better setup program. Now when you download, you'll get an install program rather than a zip file. Once you download the setup program, just double-click it and follow the prompts. It will even add a desktop icon for you. Finally, I want to remind everyone that this is NOT my program and I don't claim any kind of copyright to it. I'm just helping pass it around. And yes, it's freeware. Here's the direct download link the program is about 485KB, so it won't take too long to download): <A HREF="http://www.worldstart.com/cleanset.exe">http://www.worldstart.com/cleanset.exe</A>
