is a text file conversion, formatting, and data cleansing tool that works with text or data files.
Files can be converted by either using the command line, by browsing and selecting files, by entering wildcard characters in, or by dragging and dropping from Windows Explorer. TextPipe Search Replace automatically detects the input file type. It can read and write DOS, Unix, Macintosh, XML, HTML or SGML format.
TextPipe Search Replace can be used to run search and replace operations using pattern matching, with full egrep and regular expression support. It handles fixed-length record format files and it can filter binary characters, ANSI colors, blank lines, HTML, and backspaces. It can convert character case, add quoting characters, extract Internet URLs, add line numbers, add text to the beginning or end of files, remove duplicate lines, sort lines, change spaces to tabs, convert between ANSI and OEM or ASCII and EBCDIC, and much more.
A powerful database connection filter lets you attach to any ADO/ODBC database and execute any SQL command against it. The result can be output as CSV, Tab-delimited or XML (with automatically generated DTD schema). All characters are appropriately escaped, including quotes within strings for CSV, and XML special characters.
It can be used to convert to and from various e-mail attachment formats, including Hex, MIME Quoted Printable, MIME Base 64, UUencoded and XXencoded. It can also accept user-defined translation filters.
100 example filters are included to get you started, in addition to TextPipe Search Replace's 60 internal filters.
