In der heutigen Zeit eines der wichtigsten Hilfsmittel, um lesbare Texte zu bekommen. Gegen redaktionellen Unsinn hilft es nicht, aber gegen die meisten Sprachvergewaltigungen sehr wohl. Auch wenn hier seit Jahre keine Updates mehr gekommen sind - die Extention funktioniert perfekt und, sind wir mal ehrlich, die Sprache hat sich in den letzten Jahre so gut wie nicht verändert.
