FTEditor

To assist people working with Fielded Text files, Xilytix have developed a Fielded Text Editor.The editor lets you visually generate Meta's for Fielded Text files.

It interactively shows you any parsing errors as you develop the Meta and specifies the point in the text file where the parsing error occured.

Once you have finished the Meta, you can save it to use with a Fielded Text component. Alternatively, you can embed it inside a text file to prepare a declared Fielded Text file.

The editor is also an excellent tool for viewing and modifying Fielded Text files (such as CSV files). It can simultaneously display a file in an text edit window and a grid window. Color highlighting of columns make it easy to determine which column each field belongs to. Also the value of the field under the cursor and the mouse is highlighted and information about these values is displayed.
