The RecordEditor is an editing software that formats data stored in CSV, Fixed Field width, and Xml formats using a Record-Layout. It enables human-readable edits of data files and is comparable to File-Aid and Net-Cobols Cobol-Editor.
The RecordEditor is a software tool designed for editing data-files. It can be used in the same way as File-Aid or Net-Cobols Cobol-Editor. One of the key features of the RecordEditor is its ability to use record-layout to format data in the file for human readability. This means that the tool can format Binary Fields as normal numbers, instead of showing hex equivalents, which is what most hex editors do.
In terms of editing options, the RecordEditor offers two choices: a table-like format and a single record format, where fields are displayed down the page. Furthermore, the tool can edit several file formats, including CSV files (Comma, Tab, etc delimited fields) for both Windows and Unix, fixed field width data files (both Text and Binary) for Windows, Unix, and Z-OS (IBM Mainframe) Operating systems, as well as existing XML files.
With regards to record-layout, users can either enter them via the Layout-Editor or import them from Cobol Copybooks. The RecordEditor is based on Java 6, which means it can run on most computer systems. In conclusion, the RecordEditor is a powerful and widely compatible data file editor, designed to simplify data editing tasks for users.
