What's New in TextPipe v10.0 – August 22, 2016
==============================================
* New modern Ribbon interface. Major advantage being easy discovery of the huge
array of useful helpers buried in the right-click context menus are now
available to other than power-users!
* Select, Copy, Move and Delete Delimited field filters now use a powerful new
field editor to determine which fields to operate on.
Use field number, field ranges like 4 .. 10, Excel column names like A5 or A5
.. B6, as well as field names from the file.
Field names do not have to be in order – TextPipe will figure out where they
are in each file and automatically use them.
* New filter to Extract Delimited fields – simply list the fields you need, and
TextPipe will extract them.
* Extract field names from files directly in the file grid – just highlight the
files, right-click and choose 'Extract field names to clipboard'. TextPipe
puts a sorted field list on the clipboard.
* Match entire lines/records of CSV, Tab or Pipe data and output to a new
format simply. Match an unlimited number of fields, use custom delimiters
too. Perfect for mainframe data with thousands of columns.
Filters Menu \ Replace \ Match CSV/Tab/Pipe record.
* Easily generate patterns for CSV, Tab or Pipe-delimited entire record
matches. When using an EasyPattern match, right-click the Find What field and
choose 'Insert EasyPattern \ Line Patterns \ CSV record'. Also Tab record and
Pipe record. Matches up to 50 fields.
* Mainframe copybook filter now gives exact line and columns position for
errors, and displays the current line/column when editing.
Mainframe copybook filter now handles single-field REDEFINEs better.
Mainframe copybook filter now allows ':' as part of fieldname.
Fixed ASCII warning detection logic with zero byte files.
* Easily compare results in Excel, by taking advantage of our Excel-style
column naming in replacements.
So now instead of having to use $1$, $27$, $26$ to identify matched fields,
you can now use Excel-style column names like @col_A@, @col_AB@, @col_Z@.
These new names are now available for every search/replace throughout
TextPipe. You can also insert excel-style column names easily using the
right-click menu on pattern replacements – right click, Insert match
subexpression \ Excel column numbering \ @col_A@
* New Sort by UTF-8 (case sensitive and insensitive).
* Filters can now be paused by clicking the [Go > ] button e.g. to receive a
skype call.
* Increased filter history from 10 to 36 entries.
* New warning if the filter being opened is already open in another window.
* New button that allows defaults for each filter type to be set under user-
control rather than auto-magically. This prevents hard-to-debug issues with
pattern match options that are normally hidden.
* Moved filter text search to new location at top of filter tree, normally
hidden.
* Renamed 'Repeat Subfilters X Times' to 'Run Subfilters X Times'.
* Fixed Changing 'Include comment filters in log' not flagging the filter as
changed.
* Now checks for 'zombie' filters that follow a T-filters' secondary output
filter – these filters do nothing.
* New install option to pin to taskbar.
* Filter log filename can now include macros like @fullInputFilename@ and
@filterName@, allowing log files to be grouped and named with their filters
like
@filterPath@@filterName@.log or
%HOMEPATH%\log\@filterName@.log
* Changed macro @FILTERFILENAME@ to exclude the path, to be consistent with the
naming of other macros and to generally be more useful.
* Search/replace list filters now support Unicode.
* New option for Add Line Numbers – to reset at the start of a new file.
* Removed unused search/replace types and re-prioritized list of types.
* List of filenames can now be Unicode.
* Split file filters will now remove the last file if it has zero bytes.
* EasyPatterns are now UTF_8 enabled by default. Now have UTF-8 mode setting
for binary/ebcdic data.
* Updated ZipMaster component to 1.9.2.
* Updated PCRE regex to 8.6.9.
* Fixed bug with third option of line range selection – referencing lines
relative to the end of file with a given number of lines.
* Downloading URLs in the file list now supports https, as well as redirection
from http to https and vice versa.
