I continue to work on Aba Search and Replace, a tool for regex search and quick conversions (Base64, URL encoding, JSON Web tokens, timestamps to dates and vice versa). https://www.abareplace.com/


I continue to add more features to my search-and-replace tool for Windows (https://www.abareplace.com/). I initially built in for myself and it was one of the first incremental grep implementations (allowing you to see the results as you are typing the search pattern). Now it supports various formats like Base64, URL encoding, or timestamp conversions. With one-liners, you can add width/height attributes to <img> tags or insert file contents.


I'm working on a regex / data conversion tool for web developers: https://www.abareplace.com

Plan to add more handy features in the next version.


Agreed, the lack of borders or indentation on the screenshots is very confusing. It's hard to understand what text comes from the malicious website and what is from the author.


Is it for iOS? Then, it could be the Swift runtime library.


Eevee is she, not he. See the website footer and the home page.


Mea culpa, I'll keep it in mind for next time (though the real Eevee is a Pokemon)

An old-school regex and text processing tool for web developers. Great for browsing source code, automating complex replacements, and decoding Base64, URL encoding, or Unix timestamps from your clipboard.


It helps to start blogging about things that are related to your product or interesting to your target audience. I got the first users by writing about text-processing tasks that you can do with regular expressions: https://www.abareplace.com/blog/


Exactly, not loading the whole file into memory works well only for hex editors.


Yep. BitBlt originally used complex 16-bit "operation codes" that store the binary operations in reverse Polish notation. Then, they added "operation index" that stores the same information in a byte, like in Amiga, which is shorter and more elegant. The coding is now redundant because each raster operation code contains both an operation index and an operation code. See https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20180528-00/?p=98...
