Update to Evernote problem

Update: I did some perusing of the Evernote forum (for example http://forum.evernote.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=8694&p=33366&hilit=plain+text&sid=cbb2da7fe3c575e3cfa863943d1013b9 ) and it turns out the problem I described in my last post ( http://iponderus.com/2009/02/windows-7-and-evernote-problem.html ) is in Evernote, not Windows 7.

Specifically plain text (as pasted from Notepad) now is pasted by default as "Plain space formatted text" rather than "Plain Text" as a response to complaints from people working with source code and the like.

The work-around for now, is to use Ctrl-Shift-V (rather than Ctrl-V) to paste, which is the keyboard shortcut for "Paste Special" so that you can choose "Plain Text".

Hopefully Evernote will fix this soon.
