Can also parse text for field data using a regular expression separator, or extracting field data from files with fixed-width columns. Export field data to applications such as Microsoft Excel(CSV). Includes a File Finder filter which can traverse directories of any depth and execute Javascript to select files including conditions based on size, name, date modified, etc. In-place saver filter can write changes back to original file with backup.

Text Monkey Lite is a clever program that cleans up ugly, over-quoted email text. Text Monkey operates on text as it resides on the Windows clipboard, so it is compatible with all types of email clients. Example: You just received an important email, but it's been forwarded and quoted so many times it's almost impossible to read. With Text Monkey Lite, cleanup is a snap: just copy the message to the clipboard and paste back the cleaned text. How could it be so simple? Text Monkey senses when messy email text has been copied to the clipboard and cleans the text automatically, or upon your confirmation. Text Monkey Lite has a small footprint on-screen, and resides in the system tray so it's always on-hand when you need it.

Text Monkey PRO is a clever program that cleans up ugly, over-quoted email text. The program also includes 40+ other handy functions. Text Monkey operates on text as it resides on the Windows clipboard, so it extends the functionality of every program you use. Example 1: You just received an important email, but it's been forwarded and quoted so many times it's almost impossible to read. With Text Monkey, cleanup is a snap: just copy the message to the clipboard and paste back the cleaned text. How could it be so simple? Text Monkey senses when messy email text has been copied to the clipboard and cleans the text automatically, or upon your confirmation. Example 2: You have several paragraphs of text that you need to publish as a web page on short notice. Simply copy the text to the clipboard, click a button in Text Monkey, and you'll find that all the appropriate tags have been added to make a legal HTML document. (Text Monkey also handles the opposite case: it can remove HTML tags from a web document so that only the readable text remains.) Example 3: You're editing a list of items in the memo field of a large application. You realize that you'd like to number the list (or sort it, or delete duplicates, or indent it, or convert its character case, or...). Not to worry: just copy the text to clipboard, click a button in Text Monkey, and paste back the result. In addition to email clean-up, Text Monkey Pro includes dozens of other useful functions, all related to cleaning, formatting, or filtering text. Most of its functions require the click of just a single button. One button converts plain text to an HTML document, applying all the tags necessary to preserve formatting and create a web-publishable document. Other commands are available to sort, auto-number, delete blank lines, delete duplicate lines, count occurrences of strings, convert tabs to spaces, perform case conversions, encode/decode special HTML characters, and more.

Restrict changes to line or column ranges, CSV- or tab-delimited fields, lines that match or do not match a pattern, and search replacements (allowing replacement text to be capitalized etc). TextPipe can be fully automated via a web page, the command-line or scripted via a COM interface. Handles files larger than 2 GB. XML, CSV, tab-delimited or fixed width database extracts can be generated using the database connection filter. User-defined filters can be written in VBScript or JScript. Audit logs keep track of the filter lists run, files modified and changes made. More than 200 example filter files are included along with a comprehensive online manual.
