The XML file itself also opens in a second or less and my XML file is over 25 megs. Done deal! The amazing thing is that the "Search & Replace" for each set of buttons took less than a second to complete. Performed the "Search & Replace" for each set of buttons, EditPad Lite found 819 instances in each case as it should have, then performing the replace. Note that I'm using () versus due to HTML being enabled for forum posts. The below example is the "Search & Replace" performed for all of my DVD cover image buttons in position 1 on each page. Thanks to EditPad Lite I was done in just a couple minutes! Simply performed a "Search & Replace" for each set of buttons occupying positions 1-8 on the 819 pages and moved on to the next task at hand. This process would have taken a tremendous amount of time using PEP obviously.
EDITPAD LITE NEXT FILE UPDATE
(Each of the buttons already had a ProntoScript name with the ProntoScript button selected, just no ProntoScript.) Using PEP to implement the needed update would have involved moving certain items to the back on each page first, then selecting each of the 6,552 buttons individually to add the needed ProntoScript, then moving items back to the front again on each page. In an effort to optimize the size of my configuration file I decided to implement an update which required deleting certain elements from each of those pages in addition to adding ProntoScript to each of those 6,552 buttons.
My configuration file contains 819 pages of DVD cover image buttons, 8 cover image buttons per page. The benefits here in my case are invaluable. It offers advanced "Search & Replace" capabilities, most notably for me, the ability to replace multiple lines of text where carriage returns are used which is not possible using Notepad or Wordpad. Link action for said program shown below.ĮditPad Lite is a text editor for Windows which is free for personal use.
I've been working on updating my configuration file this morning and thought I'd take a second here to endorse an awesome program I use when working directly with the "ConfigEdit.xml" file versus using the editor.
