A text formatter that goes by the rules of the Google Plus. *bold*, _italics_, -strikethrough-
Text Formatter is an extension that formats text the way Google+ does it. Now, you can format text and make them Bold, Italicized, or Strike-Through on any site. This beautifully designed extension features both global settings and an user specific whitelist where you can define your own settings for specific sites.
Formatting Rules:
- *text* for bold text
- -text- for strike-through text
- _text_ for italicized text
Note:
Thanks to Glyphicons for the beautiful icons, Ben Alman for the replaceText Plugin, and Subtle Patterns for the awesome background textures.

- Doesn't work on any website.

- Didn't appear to work until I went to see what would happen when I published the note to google docs. Then , suddenly, all of my formatting took effect at the same time. All I had to do was click on the menu of the note. Works fine , if you can be patient. -- amended : powerwashed my machine and haven't gotten it to work since then ... still hoping.

- I can't get it to work either and there are no instructions to help me figure out if I'm doing something wrong...

- It doesn't seem to do anything. I have tried a couple of sites (including Gmail) and I am unable to format any text. I tried each of the three options: -ahjdjkahsd- _hduhdahid_ *hdjakdhas* but nothing happens - the text remains the same. Am I doing something wrong?
