StripControlChars
Fixes control characters inadvertently entered into entries or comments by pasting text containing "smart quotes," etc.
This plugin is relevant only to blogs whose character-encoding is iso-8859-1. If you're using utf-8, you probably aren't encountering the problem this plugin set out to solve.
To Remove the control characters in your text:
<$MTEntryBody strip_controlchars="1"$>
To translate these (would-be) Windows-1252 characters into the corresponding numeric entities:
<$MTEntryBody strip_controlchars="2">
