TextTransformer 1.5.0
TextTransformer - The TextTransformer can analyze texts and transform them. For this you have to write simple rules
describing the structure of the source text and determining how the parts it shall be transformed
to the target text. A single rule for example is enough to make multiple replacements of words.
Existing examples can be modified to achieve quick results. Every change can be tested immediately.
For this, the TextTransformer allows stepwise transformations in a debugger, where you can see
immediately what happens. So the development even of complex programs becomes a game. Simple rules
can be combined to arbitrary complex programs. Even grammars of programming languages can be
described, e.g. to translate them into another one.
The free version (not time
limited) has nearly all possibilities to analyze texts and to transform them. After you have
installed the TextTransformer, the functionality of the standard version (see below) can be tested
for 30 days.
The standard version has an additional transformation manager to
transform groups of files interactively. This version also has augmented interpreter capabilities:
subexpressions of tokens can be accessed and containers can be used.
In the
professional version of the TextTransformer a ready transformation program can be exported as
c++-code for use in other software products.
