TextSnoop Sees the Formatting You Cannot
A browser-based text inspector and cleaner for invisible characters, rich formatting, Markdown, HTML, Unicode, and troublesome copy-paste artifacts.
Field notes
TextSnoop accepts pasted material and separates inspection from revision: users can reveal hidden characters, inspect a character, choose cleaning rules, and preserve the original while preparing destination-specific output. Its sample diagnostic reports 19 issues across 728 characters, including one bold span, two dash breaks, one rich boundary, and one missing gap. The page also states that processing is deterministic and local, with no network request.
