Does anyone know of a Desk Accessory that will convert a piece of text on
the clipboard so that it has smart quotes? I've been using Macify to do
this, but it's an application, and it's really inconvenient to use on text
that's been formatted but doesn't have typeset quotes in it, since I have
to move it all to text and lose the typestyle info. McSink, which does
everything else in the known universe, doesn't seem to want to do this.

Suggestions?
