[ic] Strip HTML and IC tags

How should I go about stripping all HTML and IC tags from a variable or
field?  A search of the filter tag only turned up text2html which will
convert line breaks to <BR> for display on an html page.  I'd like to go
the other way, but remove all ITL and HTML tags.  I gather that it would
take a complex set of regexes to do this from my search of google.  Is
there a way to do this that is included with IC or should I look at
writing a usertag of my own?

Thanks,
