Slam-dunk the most challenging code or website edit tasks with TextPipe - a powerful text-processing utility that combines more than 100 conversion, translation and filtering operations on multiple text or binary files. Update text using search and replace, which supports perl pattern matching, sounds-like matching, edit-distance matching and search/replace lists. Convert files from foreign computer systems between mainframe fixed-length formats and DOS, Macintosh and Unix line-feed formats. Filters can split or join file, add or remove lines or column, remove blanks from the start or end of each line, remove blank line, remove HTML tag, remove duplicate line, add line number, sort, center or right justify text, word wrap, remap ANSI or Unicode character, expand or contract tab, remove backspace, remove binary character, pad or truncate or force lines to a predetermined width, generate word lists and much more. Restrict filters to operate in line or column range, CSV- or tab-delimited field, lines that match or do not match a pattern, and search replacements (allowing replacement text to be capitalized etc). TextPipe can be fully automated via the command-line or scripted via a COM interface. Handles files even larger than 2 GB. Full audit logs keep track of the filter lists run, files modified and changes made. More than 100 example filter files are included along with a comprehensive online manual and tutorial. Winner of SIA 2003 "Best Application" award.
