-
Version
2.4
Greppes are GREP's that Edit with many options. They
are programming or admin tools for Investigation and
Change of any files on ANY PC's that use MS-DOS. They
are oriented towards English byte characters but can be
adapted for other languages to include UNICODE double
bytes. PDGREPPE is Pattern Definition GREP with
Pattern Editing FGREPPE is Fast or Fixed GREP with
Pattern Editing. Each uses (CLI) Command Line
Interface and can be customised for International Text
bytes, data logging, default directories, environment
and extended command line files. Both can edit by
interactive or automatic modes with full respect for
file-sharing properties. User must specify DOS 8.3
file names. Options are available by menus of FILE,
VIEW, SEARCH, REPLACE, MISC & HELP. PDGREPPE has other
menus for DEBUG & DEFINITIONS. PDGREPPE searches by
Extended Regular Expressions similar to EGREP on UNIX
systems. It can reuse search patterns from user created
definition files, employ (MarkedGroups) of pattern data
that may be reused later BY USER SPECIFIED NAMES in
search or replace patterns. Magic or wildcard symbols
and formats are like those in other GREPS, and PERL.
They include any of "^$[].(){}<>#%-/;!?*+&|~`'@:,="and
backslash "\" that represent data positions, ranges of
characters (sets), ANY byte, Marked and Unmarked
Groups, naming and reuse of Marked Groups, positive and
negative Repititions, OR and AND operators, control,
file inclusion, literal and separation. These allow
searches to be made for imprecise or alternate forms of
data. FGREPPE is more simple like FGREP on UNIX systems
and does a search and replace based on FIXED patterns.
GREPPES feature screen paging, word wrap, high light of
match areas, recursive descent into file system,
multiple drive specification and MANY other options as
detailed in on-line documentation file README.EXE and
WWW on-line reference guide. Some support for IFS file
names on Windows 9X, 2000 and XP.
