NANY 2014 Pledge: Text Analysis App
« on: December 14, 2013, 03:15 AM »
Text Analysis App

This app will make it easier to analyze a chunk of text and see useful information. Its focus is analysis rather than manipulation.

I've been dealing with some rather large log files at work lately, and I find myself dissatisfied with my ability to extract useful information from large bodies of text. Crafting find-and-replace queries, importing to Excel, and visually scanning for data are all tedious processes that dance around the goal: gathering information and answering questions. This tool will be different. Somehow.
Funny that programmers chose the phrase "Hello, World" while most of us are introverts.

I have a fondness for text manipulation apps. I'm trying to think if I have any killer use cases but nothing yet.
Use attachthumb=# to show an attached image as an expandable thumbnail, or attach=# to show full size. (With Brackets)

Any news here Pyro?

And will there ever be feature updates after Nany? Murphy's law sez one day I'll latch on to this but want a killer app feature. : )

Pyro, I assume you weren't able to finish the app in time for the NANY deadline?
