How can I save web pages in .txt format?
I often want to save information I find online so I can look at it later. When I open the 'file; save as' box, it offers me four options, one of which is text files. but no matter which option I choose, it always saves as a web page. I just want the basic text, in .txt format. How can I get it to do this?

You should see the option for "Text Files" when going to save a web page, in addition to Web Page, complete and Web Page, HTML only - but that is probably going to have a lot more than just the pure text of that web page.
This should work better, but you might miss some of what appears to be "text" when viewing the web page.
{Ctrl + A} to highlight the entire web page, then {Ctrl + C} to copy everything that is highlighted to the Clipboard. Then Paste the contents of the Clipboard into a Text Editor program, then use {Ctrl + S} to bring up the Save As... dialog. Name that file and make sure you include .txt.
