TextPipe

Plain and simple, TextPipe is the most powerful text conversion, transformation, and re-purposing software money can buy. It replaces multiple text editors, command line tools, custom scripts, and word and excel macros. Unlike many competing applications, TextPipe can handle documents of any size (2 GB+) with no slowdown. A unique system of 'restrictions' control precisely where changes are made. For example, you can restrict operations to a range of lines or columns, to specific Tab or CSV fields, between HTML/XML tags, or any number of other user-defined ranges.

If TextPipe's 100+ filters don't suit your needs, you can use VBScript/JScript to write your own. It offers an intuitive 'EasyPattern' pattern matching language for those unfamiliar with traditional pattern matching expressions, and can be scheduled for non-interactive use or controlled by an external application.

Get 'em Done

Organizational software should be easy to use. Otherwise, what's the point? Recognizing this, the folks over at StudyLamp Software created Get 'em Done, a fantastically simply to-do list for people who want to spend more time getting things done, and less time learning-how-to-use-the-complicated-software-
that's-supposed-to-be-helping-them-get-things-done.

Don't go looking for frills, bells, whistles, graphs, schedulers, spreadsheets, or information trees. You won't find them. What you will find is an elegant, lightning-quick to-do list with only the features that matter. The application window is comprised of just 2 tabs: uncompleted tasks and completed tasks. Add a new task, it appears in the uncompleted section. Check a task off the list, it moves into the completed section. Easy! You've just simplified your life, and you didn't even have to crack the help file.

Online Desktop Presenter

Online Desktop Presenter allows you to transmit your screen content to any standard web browser. At short intervals, the software automatically generates a compressed image of your Windows Desktop and transfers the data (via FTP) to a web server of your choosing. To view the stream, remote users need only input the designated URL into any browser on any platform — no extra installations required.
