TextCrawler 4 Pro BETA version available

Post by DigitalVolcano »

Pleased to announce that the TextCrawler 4 Pro BETA is ready!

Requirements:
-Microsoft .NET 8.0 which requires Windows 10 (22H2) as a minimum.
-64 Bit Windows. If anyone is still running Windows 10 in 32 bit let me know and I'll see what I can do....

.NET 8 desktop runtime download:
https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/down ... -installer

Beta Download (MSI Installer)
https://www.digitalvolcano.co.uk/downlo ... 1-BETA.msi

This is a beta, so please don't use on any important or production data. Always back up first.

New features (for TextCrawler 3 users):
-Tabbed, multi-document interface with draggable floating or docked windows
-Theming
-Find/Replace in File names
-Selectable RegEx engine (currently .NET 8 and PCRE2 available)
-Input from web. Can crawl web-pages, either as HTML/raw source or parsed as text
-Reworked batch editor. Now just focuses on find/replace - the commands are no longer in the list and are taken from the containing project.
-New file format, txc4. TextCrawler txc files can be loaded.
-Line number of first hit shown in results.
-Runs about 3x the speed of TextCrawler 3
-Improved scratchPad with line numbers
-Lots of other bits and bugfixes.

TO-DO
May not be fully feature complete. Let us know if anything you loved from TX3 is missing...
On-line manual is incomplete.
