Dear all,

It's a pleasure to announce an update to !ConvText, the scripted Search &
Replace utility for RISC OS. Rather than some bug fixes or cosmetic
adjustments, the entire core is rewritten, resulting in a 35% speed
increase. More importantly, wildcards are much better implemented now.

If your scripts were already working satisfyingly and you don't need 35%
speed increase, then you still may want to download the new version for a
tiny little bonus - an extra built in command that counts the words and
calculates the average word length of any given text file.

The accompanying StrongHelp manual is adjusted accordingly, while an
illustrated manual in PDF format can be downloaded separately from

http://www.riscos.sprie.nl/Downloads/ManualCT.pdf

*********************

!ConvText is a utility that performs a list of search and replace jobs in
one go, on any type of file, by means of scripts that can be created
easily. If you need to do a number of subsequent searches an replaces on a
regular base, !ConvText might be a convenient solution.

*********************

Kind regards,
Paul Sprangers
