PARex PARex is a program which allows you to process files,
mostly textfiles, whereby strings can be replaced by
another, text between two strings can be stripped,
strings put in lower or upper case. PARex supports
normal text searching, wildcard searching, context
remembering and word-only searching. Using data scripts
enables the use of an unlimited number of such replace
commands. Each replace command can be individually
controlled. All ASCII codes can be used in the search
and replace strings, even entire files, dates, times,
can be inserted in such strings. Custom formatted
hexadecimal output is also supported. Over twenty ready
to use program scripts are included to perform simple
tasks as: converting files between different computer
systems, stripping comments from source files, finding
strings in files, converting AmigaGuide files to normal
text files,... even automatic version updating of
source files. By the way, v3.00 is about two to more
than twenty times faster than the previous versions,
and is supplied in english, german, french, and dutch.
This is version 3.00, an update to version 2.12 on disk
number 859. Binary only (but the source is available),
shareware. Author: Chris P. Vandierendonck
