Try using ALT-L/C/R on this puppy!

However, using Clipmate (Two button clicks and a CTRL-V), it not only
removes the overquotes, but it reforms the paragraphs completely, and
rewraps them at any column setting I tell it to. i.e. fixed and
wrapped at 40 columns:
1. Only in America......can a pizza get
to your house faster than an ambulance.
2. Only in America......are there
handicap parking places in front of a
skating rink.
3. Only in America......do drugstores
make the sick walk all the way to the
back of the store to get their
prescriptions while healthy people can
buy cigarettes at the front.
4. Only in America......do people order
double cheese burgers, large fries, and
a diet coke.
It's a very simple function of Clipmate to use. Take a gander at
their animated demo of the Text Clean-up function:

I would love to see a plugin for TB that has got this kind of juice
when v2.0 comes out.
Cheers,
