from Jeff W. Martin, Carreker Corporation
“I use it handling differences in data interchange with our customer banks... I
used to have an entire folder full of quick little VB programs that I would
write to fix up data, and I no longer use them. They all have been replaced by
TextPipe. Since I bought the product 20 days ago, I have replaced all of my
other home-brew utilities and processed over 350GB of data.” [more]
Process Information From Anywhere
TextPipe handles both text and binary files with equal
ease. File formats you can convert and extract data from include:
HTML, XML and other structured documents from the WWW
The replacement text can include all or part of the original text or
a re-arrangement of it, and the case of the replacement text can be
automatically altered to preserve the case of the original text. The
found text can be used as a constraint for further filters, such as by
converting it to Upper Case, performing further search and replaces
inside the replacement text or even a database or dictionary lookup.
Manipulate Precise Sections of Text
TextPipe can restrict changes to line ranges, column ranges,
tab-delimited fields,
CSV-delimited fields, lines matching a pattern and more. You can combine
restrictions, for example, to alter a
specific line and column range. You can also apply further text
manipulations to the Replaced Text in a Search and Replace operation,
such as by making the Replacement Text UPPERCASE.
Unlimited Power
TextPipe's frees you from worrying about memory size or disk space
limitations:
TextPipe performs an unlimited numbers of manipulations in a
single pass (e.g. 100 different search and replace operations)
There is no limit on file size - so you can process files larger
than 10 Gigabytes
All files are processed without using temporary disk space - only
the result file is output
TextPipe handles an unlimited number of files (e.g. corporate
websites).

VBScript and JScript Custom Filters
Extend TextPipe by writing custom filters using
industry-standard VBScript, JScript or other scripting languages. Use
this to perform database lookups, insert data in Excel or Word or other
non-standard processing. TextPipe can also call external programs to
manipulate parts of the text.
Automation and Integration
TextPipe can be scheduled
for automated lights-out processing, with
audit logs tracking every step.
TextPipe can be automated via the command line
(using the
Command Line Wizard) or scripted via a
COM interface, allowing TextPipe's text processing power to be
controlled by programming languages such as Visual Basic, C++ and
Delphi.
TextPipe can
export filters to VBScript, JScript or a web page - which can be
customized to make TextPipe
even easier for less technical users by presenting a simplified GUI.
TextPipe integrates directly into Windows Explorer as a
right-click menu for ease of use, and with a growing list of
third party products.
