musetips, have you considered supporting multiple text files?

If Text Filter could load more than a single file, then it could be utilized more like a search/grep tool. 8)

I considered a tabbed MDI (multiple document interface) scheme at the very beginning. This could add some versatility, but only at the cost of simplicity, one of the most critical objectives.

For now, I might as well keep it as simple as possible. The TODO list is pretty long.

Those sound great.  Having keyboard shortcuts for those features would be a great addition.  I use Checkvist.com for list management and their shortcuts are very intuitive http://checkvist.com/auth/help#keyboard

Thank you! Interesting site. Will give a second thought to shortcuts.

I tried to download Text Filter just now but can't seem to get it.

My site was under maintenance. The download link is ok now.

Depending on how much editing is allowed, this could evolve into the app I've been looking for.  I'll keep an eye on it.  Keep up the good work :)

Thanks! I'm considering below features:

1) click or double-click an item to enter editing mode;
2) select one or more lines, then copy/cut/paste/delete/hide;
3) sort lines alphabetically, or by text-length, or else;
4) export matched/unmatched lines to a new file;
5) state/stats/summary info for the status bar.

Any ideas?

Great app.  If it's alpha, I'm guessing you're aware that nothing happens when you select Tools -> Options?

I've been looking for an app to manage lists, and live search is an essential feature.  Any plans to add more list-management features to this app (moving items around, editing them, etc)?

Still pre-alpha. The Tools -> Options hasn't been implemented yet.

Edit menu options, currently disabled (unimplemented), will help do some editing in a later release.

Since this is a text-viewer program, I may not add many editing options.

Does it, or is it going to, support regular expressions?

Yes, regular expression is supported. See below for an example:

A few questions...

There's no license. Is it distributed as freeware?
What stage of development is it in?


I created this tool for myself, put it here to see if others might see it useful.

The dev stage is barely pre-alpha, as some features are missing or still under dev.

Just considering to make it freeware. Not decided yet.

I haven't tried it yet , but I can see a lot of uses for it. Task management is one that comes to mind, especially with GTD and things like searching for contexts or projects. Or any kind of lookup of info that has to be instant.

And welcome to DonationCoder!

Thank you!

I personally use it to view my text-format dictionaries, Win32 API list, data sheet and log files.

Originally, I created it to make a "search-as-you-type" dictionary lookup tool for myself.
