OPMl undo

Here's the scenario. You are editing your Manila site in your browser and one day you try out Radio Userland. Like many before you, you find it's really neat, you can even edit stories in an outliner.

Unfortunately, you now made it impossible to edit these story in the browser, the edit this page button still works, but it reveals OPML formatted text. Userland has described this as a feature, so it's unlikely to change. You might, if you click the edit this page button, see something that looks like this

That is, editing a story in Radio Userland is a one way conversion, and it is done without notification.

With this function, you "fix" these stories so that they are legible in the browser once more - at the cost of losing any formatting you might have done in Radio Userland.

You do that by selecting the menu item UNDO OPML Formatting from the ManilaFixer menu which will show you something like this

Check the box next to affected story and hit enter

and now if you check on the offending story it will look like this
