About TextShine
Easily paste text from the clipboard or load text from a file, modify the text
with loads of built-in text actions and user-created custom text workflows, and
save the changes to the clipboard or to a file.
In addition to the built-in actions, TextShine allows you to create and test
custom text conversion workflows. These custom workflows can then be used in the
same way that built-in actions are used within the application.

Load text from clipboard or from a file.
Save text back to clipboard, to the same file or to a new file.
Unlimited undo/redo of text changes.
Apply a text action in a single click.
Support for action favoriting.
