This is a simple Chrome extension that watches for pastebin.com URLs, and if it looks like a request for a paste, redirects the user to the raw format.
For example:
automatically redirects to:
http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=FHqpUyyv
This avoids obnoxious adverts, distracting pages, duplicate text, and gives users just what they need - the plain text!
This extension is available in the Chrome Web Store.
Alternatively you can clone this repository then point at the checked out directory from Settings -> Extensions -> Load unpackaged extension (you'll need to have checked "Developer mode" to enable unpackaged installation).
