Editing Tip: How to remove formating from selection - ctrl-space

Lester Lobo taught me ctrl-space yesterday as a way to go back to the default formatting for the text selection. Handy thing to know!

(It works in Word, LiveWriter...probably lots of places?)

I used to follow the following procedure for the same effect:

- cut text

- paste into notepad (removes formatting)

- select all, cut again

- paste into word again.

(or in short, ctrl+x, ctrl+v, ctrl+a, ctrl+x, ctrl+v) :)

Yes, my way is quite more expensive. And your tip is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
