Speaking for myself, the "clean up" command doesn't works, almost for "Selected List(s)" and "Html Entities".

    Can you give an example?

    Yes, of course.
    Given that the "clean up" command works to cancel every character different from simple text from a selected text (for instance: removing - from list, <> from html code, ecc.), in fact it doesn't remove anything and the selected text remains the same as before.

    I think you misunderstand the clean up commands.

    None of them remove list markers or `<>` characters.

    Usually if you're using Composer to write your document, you won't need
    them. It's when you copy text from another source that they become more
    useful.

    I've been trying "Clean up" with this code selected:

    *********
    <!DOCTYPE html><html>
    <head>
    <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
    <title>Rai News: le ultime notizie in tempo reale &ndash; news, attualit&agrave; e aggiornamenti</title>
    <link rel="canonical" href="http://www.rainews.it/">
    **********
    This is the result:
    - Metadata: the whole text disappears
    - Selected List(s): nothing happens (probably because it isn't a list)
    - Unwrap: the whole text becomes a single line
    - Selected Table(s): nothing happens (probably because it isn't a table)
    - Smart Typography: nothing happens
    - HTML: nothing happens
    - Full Clean up: the whole text disappears

    1) I fixed a bug in cleaning up Metadata when no metadata exists. That
    is why text disappears.

    2) The rest of the commands give the proper result for the text you
    submitted.

    Improved version will be in 4.0b26.

    Thanks!
