Just posted a new super simple plugin on ForgeBox for your use. 

Plain Text Convertor

Description:
This plugin takes html or rtf text and converts it to plain text
Example:
This call would return the text of "Test Convertor", stripping out all the HTML.
#getMyPlugin("plaintextconvertor").convert("<p><a href='text.htm'>Test Convertor</a></p>")#
Arguments for the convert function:
text: REQUIRED The text to convert
format: either html or rtf, defaults to html.  This is what format your incoming text argument is in.

This plugin uses the Java Swing library.  Thanks to Ernst van der Linden for the inspiration.

BoxLang AI 3.4.0: Gateways, Human-in-the-Loop, and a Full Security Stack

BoxLang AI 3.4.0 is one of the biggest releases in the module's history, and it is built around a single theme: trust. Every agent you ship eventually needs a human to step in, and every agent that reads untrusted content is a target for prompt injection. This release gives you both a proper answer.
