ListStripper

Keeping important items on a list is pretty handy, because it prevents you from making accidents in case you fail to remember things which need to be done. In case you store items inside TXT files, then you can easily rely on specialized applications like ListStripper to replace particular text strings with blanks.

Before anything can function as intended, it’s recommended to check whether or not .NET Framework is on your computer, even though modern Windows iterations bundle it inside the default set of features. On the other hand, ListStripper isn’t packed inside an installer, so you can carry it around, and take it for a spin as soon as it lands on your PC.

The application keeps things simple, and you get to spend little time in the accommodation process. A large area is where you either write or paste the target list, with a couple of fields to help set the replacement string, and operation functions found all the way at the bottom of the window.

Although the application tricks you into believing it intends to process lists, items in your document don’t necessarily need to be on a row alignment. In fact, ListStripper functions as a text replacement application, but instead of letting you choose what the text with this the initial string is replaced, it removes the target string instead.

Note, however, that input needs to either need to be manually written down, or pasted from an existing document, because there’s no possibility to load an existing file. On the other hand, once you process the list, it’s possible to have it copied to clipboard, or saved to file as a TXT document.

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that ListStripper isn’t really a text replacement tool, but rather wants to help you easily remove done items from your lists. Even if you can’t load files, you can paste any kind of text, saving the result to file, or sending it to clipboard.
