TextCrawler 2.0 Beta available for trying out

Updated Beta
http://www.digitalvolcano.co.uk/downloa ... 2_beta.zip

The main addition is the option to send parameters to external apps when double clicking on a file. For instance you can get the app (eg. Notepad2) to jump to the first search hit in the file.

Hopefully this is the last beta before a proper release!

ulm67 - I hope to eventually have language resource files in TextCrawler (similar to Duplicate Cleaner), but haven't done that yet in order to speed up development.

Wow, command line parameters are really great!

My standard editor is EditPlus (http://www.editplus.com/)
and the additional parameter line has to look like this:

[File] -cursor [Line]

Noobie Noobenstein here....

I seem to be having some trouble getting the correct end result.
I need to delete the text between "START" & "END", whilst keeping
the text between "END" & "START", in the follwing excerpt of text:

START
N1737G01Z2.0154F600.
N1738Z2.F400.
N1739G00Z3.5
N1740Z2.1
N1741G01Z1.0154F600.
N1742Z1.F400.
N1743G00Z3.5
N1744Z1.1
N1745G01Z.0154F600.
N1746Z0.F400.
N1747G00Z3.5
END
N1749G01Z.0054F600.
N1750Z-.01F400.
N1751G00Z3.5
N1752G00X14.6076
START

Any assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.

Preston - a solution! This works in TextCrawler 2 (beta)

On RegEx Tab (Make sure 'Dot Matches Newline' is ticked -
Regex:
START.*?END
Replace:
START\r\nEND

Replace can just be blank if you do not want to keep the START/END tags.

Did you see my post on page 5 about the GUI?
I just want to express my thoughts again for one reason: I like the program and its powerful functionality.

Compared to the previous version the v 2.0 looks somehow old-fashioned. Regarding its outstanding features it deserves something more light-weight that looks like "web 2.0"

Addition to my post above:
that refers to the look in XP with the Classic Design. Just tested in Win7, where it looks much better.

That explains it - it does look a bit boxy in XP 'Classic'. I see it as the screenshot here (Windows XP default theme)

But it depends on your windows theme/version.

Yep, that's how it looks in the XP classic theme:

So no offense, will upgrade to Win7 with this machine anyway
