Here's some C(++) that I use to strip formatting codes in Phoenix (for toats); maybe you can base your code on it.

code:

---

void stripFormat(WCHAR *from, WCHAR *result) {
  wcscpy(result, L"\0");
  while (*from != L'\0') {
    if (*from == L'·') {
      from++;
      if (*from == L'$') {
        from++;
        if (*from <= L'9' && *from >= L'0') from++;
        if (*from <= L'9' && *from >= L'0') from++;
        if (*from == L'#') from+=7;
      }
      else if (*from == L'0' ||
        *from == L'\'' ||
        *from == L'@' ||
        *from == L'#' ||
        *from == L'&')
        from++;
      continue;
    }
    wcsncat(result, from, 1);
    from++;
  }
}

Edit: Please, please, please! Make code preserve tabs!
