Ferrite Platform 1.5

Ferrite is a text transformation, conversion and extraction (data mining) tool especially suitable for automating data processing tasks.

Ferrite makes it easy to convert, manipulate and extract data from text documents, allowing the user to combine text processing primitives in a unique way to achieve the desired results. Specifically, text data is streamed from an input source to an output sink, with transformation filters applied as desired. Each filter executes in its own thread, delivering unmatched processing power and performance.
Powerful Regular Expression based engine allows intelligent data conversion and manipulation.
Combine processing filters to create workflows. Save workflows and execute with a single click. If you have files that you need to make similar changes often, create a workflow of the required changes, and simply click to apply the changes! Dont be caught making manual changes to files when it can be automated.
Process files of ANY size. Ferrite uses an architecture based on streaming a small number of records through the filters. This avoids problems and limitations arising from loading entire files into memory.
Each plugin within a workflow executes independently of the others performing multiple operations simultaneously. If you have a computer with Dual or Quad CPUs, Ferrite can take full advantage of them providing optimal performance demanded by todays users.
Process Unicode files transparently. Just specify the encoding of a file while loading or saving it.
Read and write remote files across the net as easily as local files. Just specify the URL(s) of the files to be processed and it will be downloaded automatically when the workflow is executed. No more stale data files that were downloaded yesterday when an updated version is available!
Handle Line terminator conversion between different platforms: Windows/DOS, UNIX and Mac.
