We're very proud that TextPipe has just won the 2003 Shareware
Industry Association "Best Application" award! See

Translators will love our new search/replace lists, which can be
imported or loaded at run time from Excel, CSV or Tab-delimited
formats. We have completely redesigned the Unicode map filter,
and we have made many useability improvements - more details
are below.
We have also included a French translation.
We've also just released new versions of:
* WordPipe - search and replace in multiple Word documents
And two new products -
* ExcelPipe - search and replace in multiple Excel spreadsheets

What's New in v6.6.2
====================
* New filter supporting search/replace lists. The lists can either
be specified in a grid, or they can be loaded dynamically from
Excel, CSV or Tab-delimited file formats at run-time.
* Changed menu structure to make it easier for new users. Removed
some icons from the toolbar.
* New File Grid context menu option to copy 100 Kbytes to the
Trial Run Area.
* The file list now supports multiple file specifications
separated by semi-colons eg c:\INetPub\*.html;*.txt;*.htm
* The Split Files filter can now control how the output files are
named.
* Subtract entries in the file list are now shown in red, and
Ignore entries (comments) shown in grey.
* The filter tree view now supports Cut, Copy and Paste clipboard
operations. There is also an undo action for the current filter.
Filters can also be pasted into any application as a text
export.
* The Script filter now uses a Syntax highlighting editor to
display VBScript, JScript, VBA, PerlScript and PythonScript
code. It also allows separate default scripts to be saved for
each language.
* Unicode maps can now be loaded from and saved to Excel/CSV/Tab
formats. Unicode filters are now far faster and can deal with
undefined characters - such as removing them, replacing them
with a custom string, sending them to a VBScript sub filter for
specialized processing, or allowing them to pass through
unchanged.
* CSV and Tab-delimited files with CR/LFs embedded in fields are
now handled correctly. New restriction filters can be used to
remove the embedded CR/LFs.
* CSV and Tab-delimited restricted filters can now remove the
comma or tab field delimiters and the surrounding quotes to make
it easier for sub filters to work with field data. Each field's
data can now be processed individually rather than as a
concatenation of field data.
* Byte map lines where the output is different to the input are
now shown in yellow. Byte maps can now scroll directly to the
character you press on the keyboard - which makes finding
mappings easier.
* In the audit log, merge file filters now summarize the changes
made by filters that follow them in the filter list. Split file
filters also summarize the changes made.
* New command line options /CLEARCOMMENTS, /CLEARFILTERS,
/SAVEFILTER, /LOGENABLE, /LOGMODE, /LOGTHRESHOLD,
/PREPAREFILTERFORDISTRIBUTION, /SAVEFILTER, /PLAYSOUND.
* When loading a list of commands from a command file with
/Z=<command file name>, comments can now be included in the file
using a leading ';'.
* Speed improvements for the GUI and for filter execution.
* Audit logging now shows status for more filters including
Scripts and Maps. The audit log text shown for search/replace
filters now matches what is shown on the screen for ease of
reference.
* Various COM scripting changes to support new features, and to
allow DataPipe to set the current directory.
* Perl patterns now support UTF-8.
* Convert end-of-lines filter now handles Mainframe CMS V- and F-
format files (downloaded to PC in EBCDIC format).
* Upgraded to PCRE 4.3 pattern matching library.
* Added warning message that not all filter types can be exported
to the command line.
* Tips and Wizard dialogs now allow filters being double clicked
on from Windows Explorer to be loaded.
* Tips and Wizard are only shown if a filter hasn't been
automatically loaded.
* Run Time version now disables sound by default and does not show
a tray icon.
* Added Exit Codes depending on the highest level of error logged.
* New /EXPORTFILTERTOLOG command line option.
* Trial Input now preserves Unix EOLs when a file is pasted or
loaded.
