Eluent Tools offers a suite of utilities including Eluent Replace, a Perl regex-based multi-file search and replace tool. It also includes Eluent Find and other features for file content searching and viewing.
Eluent Tools is a comprehensive collection of file and folder tools specifically designed for Windows. The package includes a range of different utilities, each with their own unique purpose, all of which enable users to work with files and folders on their Windows systems more easily and efficiently.
One of the standout tools in the package is Eluent Replace, a GUI-based program that offers a multi-pattern, multi-file search and replace functionality using Perl regular expressions. This tool also supports Perl scripting and provides an interactive user interface that makes it easy to operate. Another tool is Eluent Find, which allows users to search for file contents, and offers support for various regular expression dialects, including Perl.
Eluent Attrib is a particularly useful tool that allows users to modify file and folder attributes, including the Compressed and Encrypted attributes under Windows NT/2000/XP. Additionally, Eluent Dir is a flexible file finder based on Path Plans, which is a commonly used method for specifying file searches within Eluent Tools.
The package also offers Eluent EOL, a program for converting text files between DOS/Windows, Macintosh, and Unix formats, as well as Eluent Tab, which can convert tabs to spaces and vice versa in text files. Finally, there is Eluent Touch, a program for modifying file and folder timestamps, which is often used in development environments.
Overall, the tools in Eluent Tools are designed to work effectively as graphical desktop applications launched from the Start Menu and Windows Explorer context menus, as well as non-interactive command line tools. They offer a variety of features related to Microsoft Visual C++ 5 and 6 and Visual Studio .NET, making them a valuable addition to the Tools menu in these environments. The tools all share a common interface for specifying files and folders to process, and settings can be saved in Path Plans for later use. These plans offer exceptional flexibility when it comes to filtering search options, and support a wide array of sources besides the directory search, such as response files, projects currently open in Visual C++, and the Windows Indexing Service, among others.
