What's New in v6.2.1
====================

* Tree view now displays more than just the first line of scripts
and comments.
* Fixed bug with perl-style grep and blank lines.
* Input Filter export showed incorrect value for Delete Input
Files After Processing.
* Filters loaded from the command line now have their full path
saved, so they get saved to the correct location even if the
current directory is changed.
* Added missing properties to Filter Export function.
* Fixed bug handling command line filenames with embedded '..'
paths.


What's New in v6.2
==================

Note: v6.2 was released quickly to correct some serious bugs, but it was
not announced until v6.2.1 was released with further bug fixes.

* New filter to Remove lines matching any patterns in a list.
* New filter to Retain lines matching any patterns in a list.
* New filters to Retain matching lines, Remove matching lines,
Retain non-matching lines and Remove non-matching lines - this
is easier to understand than the Select lines filters.
* New filter to add a file side-by-side with an existing file.
* New filter to add a file side-by-side with an existing file and
repeat the added file if the file being added to has more lines.
* New filter to Split a File after a given number of lines.
* New Input Filter to generate random a data file of a particular
size.
* New filter to repeat a file's contents a specified number of
times.
* Added Script Timeout option to VBScript/JScript filter
* Show Command Line dialog now also shows the current path and all
environment variables.
* Added 'Escape special characters' menu item to right-click menus
of all fields. This is very handy for adding backslashes in
front of pattern matching meta characters, and doubling '@' and
'$' characters where appropriate.
* Added 'Allow Extra Spaces' menu item to right-click menu of all
pattern fields, allowing you to easily search and replace in
HTML files by ignoring any extra spaces or tabs that commonly
occur.
* Added 'Allow Extra Line Feeds or Spaces' menu item to right-
click menu of all pattern fields, allowing you to easily search
and replace in HTML files by ignoring any extra spaces, tabs or
line feeds that commonly occur.
* Updated help, fixed application links to help file, help file
now displays when TextPipe is first run
* Fixed bug with filter loading
* Made splitter in Search/Replace filter visible, now resizes
correctly.
* Fixed 'Add folder' button - newer versions of Windows caused
this dialog to appear behind the main window.
* Unknown field codes (a name preceded by an '@' symbol) are now
NOT replaced with a blank - they are left as is to prevent
inadvertent use of a field code causing text to disappear. Known
field codes (@clipboard, @inputFilename, @fullInputFilename)
still work as normal.
* Added new COM function to filter windows - closeWithoutSave.
Added new options to COM interface, including default values.
* Fixed bug with a filter validation function not being called
when there were sub filters anywhere above them in the filter
list.
* Fixed a bug affecting the Select Matching Lines, Select Non-
matching Lines, Select Lines From Length To END, Select Lines
From Start To End, Select Lines From Start For Length filters
when immediately followed by a line-based filter such as a
Reverse Each Line, Pad To Width etc. Some text was not output at
all.
* Fixed a bug affecting the Remove Lines Found In List and Only
Keep Lines Found In List filters - because the list was not
internally sorted, the actual lines would only occasionally be
processed correctly. A workaround was to ensure that the line
list is first sorted in ascending alphabetical order.
