upCast RT 7.1.3 is one of the most comprehensive tools which can enable you to use Microsoft Word as an authoring application for XML documents.

Take advantage of the widespread availability and familiar user interface of Word or any other RTF savvy office application for structured document authoring. upCast offers a cost-effective way to reuse existing tools for gaining all the benefits of a standardized markup language: XML.

Major Features:

1. Import formats
   • RTF documents conforming to the RTF specification 1.8 (including style info)
   • Word binary documents (using WordLink; only when running on Windows platform with Word installed)
   • Any well-formed XML document (no style info)
2. Processing features
   • Run Upcast Processing Language (UPL) code on documents
   • Transform documents using XSLT (XSLT 1: Xalan, XSLT 2: Saxon-B)
   • Integrate external tools via commandline call
   • Create complex, nested groupings using UPL and the Grouper module
   • Create markup based on regular expressions, even across element boundaries
   • Create markup based on style information
   • Validate against XML DTD, XML Schema and Relax NG
   • In-place transformations, attach custom data to any node
   • List detection heuristics, supporting nested lists
   • Create sub-processing pipelines
   • Perform detailed logging, handle processing errors
   • Sophisticated handling of embedded and referenced images
3. Export formats
   • XML (upCast DTD)
   • XML (internal tree format)
   • RTF (Version 1.6)
   • CSS
4. Interfaces
   • GUI based on Swing
   • Commandline
   • Java API
     

Enhancements:

• New Features
• • UPL: New function set-var() to be able to set variables with dynamically calculated names
  • UPL: New function parse-numbering() to convert a (possibly multi-level) numbering string like "(iv)" or "I-A-3.d)" into a list of integers indicating the number index of each level like {4} or {1,1,3,4}
  • RTF Exporter: new option to specify handling of missing images or images in an unsupported or unrecognized format
• Changes & Improvements
• • Documentation: markup-regex(): Add notice that with a repeating group, only the last instance is handled by markup-regex() as described in javadoc for java.util.regex.Pattern.
  • Documentation: markup-regex(): Add example for parsing out heading numbers by levels.
  • Documentation: markup-regex(): Add example for custom-replace function.
  • When log file path is "-", the console logger is used. You can therefore request output to the console (instead of to a file) by specifying "-Dde.infinityloop.application.logfile=-" on invoking Java.
  • You can now set specifically configured logging filter on the external logger. This can be done programmatically via the Java API or use the system property de.infinityloop.logfilterspec for testing within the GUI.
  • Completely revamped logging filter configuration in the UI. This includes modules, pipelines, preferences and Log Window. In each of these places, you now can specify a fully customizable log filter spec string. This required a change of the pipeline storage format to V4. Format converters from earlier pipeline versions have been implemented and work silently in the background on loading a pipeline file. The UI has changed to an editable combo box with the plain log levels available as pre-defined choices. However, you can write into the edit field and set up any filter spec you like. For syntax, see documentation.
  • Log Window was line-wrapping, which is not desirable. Now, a horizontal scroll bar is shown as needed.
• Fixes
• • Re-setting the WordLink executable path dynamically during program execution was not picked up by the RTF Exporter
  • RunPipeline did not work at all times
  • several corrections in the documentation
  • Pipeline Settings > License: Alt modifier did not work to force relative path
  • Documentation generated by the pipeline doc generator did not warn on missing self-containedness when license setting was "inherit"
  • Calling replace-with-text() does not work on a last sibling node in that the text to replace it with was not inserted, although the node to replace was deleted.
  • UPL: fixed bug in checking signatures of functions with variable argument lists
  • Exporting Ant source or Java source did not report any errors during that op, but showed "successful" message instead.
  • Log window: Disable filter entry field when showing log from file where filtering is not possible

Requirements:

• Java 5 runtime environment or later
• 512 MB of free RAM (recommended)
• Environment compatible and running with Xerces 2.9 or later (Xerces 2.9.1 is delivered with upCast binary)

Acme Script Widgets 3.0.6 is a rather praiseworthy program that extends the AppleScript language with important tools for manipulating text and lists. Commands include: Sort, search/replace, tokenize, join lists,extract URLs, set/get the clipboard, trim, offsets of, read/write styled text, change case, insert/delete item, and others.

Major Features:

1. Text Processing
   • Acme replace: Replace occurrences of a string with another string, with options for case-sensitive search, replace all or only first occurrence, and apply the replacement to lists of items or lists of lists!
   • Change case: Convert text to UPPER case, lower case, Sentence case, or toggle the case of every character.
   • Offsets of:
   • Tokenize: Split a string into a list of items based on one or more delimiter strings. You are not restricted to using single characters as delimiters for breaking the string into separate items.
   • Trim: Trim text (not just spaces) from either end of a string (or both), optionally ignoring patterns. Works on strings or lists of strings.
   • Acme sort: Sort a list of data items [strings, numbers, dates, etc.] or sort lists of lists into ascending or descending order. For sorting lists of lists, specify which item within the inner list is used for comparisons.
2. List Manipulation
   • Offset in list: Search for a string in a list of items and return the index into the list of the first occurrence, or all occurences.
   • Insert item: Insert an item into a list at a specified index.
   • Delete item: Delete an item from a list at a specified index.
   • Join list: This is the reverse of the tokenize operation. Given a list of strings, combine the elements into a single string with separator strings.
   • Combine lists: Groups the Nth items from sublistts together into a list of new lists.
3. Other Tools...
   • Acme parse args: This function handles decoding and grouping http CGI arguments (such as from a Form POST submission). Strings are URL-decoded in the process. [Only available for Mac OS 8/9]
   • Acme lookup field: After calling Acme parse args on your CGI data, get the value of a form field using this function. [Only available for Mac OS 8/9]
   • Download the OS X replacement for these functions: DecodeURL Script

Sawmill 8.0.9 is created as a powerful, hierarchical log analysis tool which runs on every major platform. It is particularly well suited to web server access and referrer logs, but can process almost any log.

It runs either with a built-in web server, or as a CGI program on your web server, and publishes an intuitive graphical user interface which can be used from any web browser to configure and run Sawmill, or to view the statistics pages. The statistics pages are hierarchical, attractive, and heavily crosslinked for easy navigation. Complete documentation is built directly into the program. Sawmill provides an extensive set of features, including a persistent database, fine control over the appearance of stats pages, and versatile log filtering options.

Major Features:

1. Easy To Use
   • Sawmill presents an intuitive web-based user interface, which leads you through every step of browsing your log file's statistics. The New Profile Wizard asks questions when it needs information, so you only have to deal with the configuration options which are relevant to the task at hand.
2. Extensive Documentation
   • The manual for Sawmill is built right into the web interface program, so it's always at your fingertips as you use the program. Throughout the HTML interface, there are links to relevant sections of the online documentation, and wherever a configuration option is mentioned, or a value is requested for it, there is a link to that option's documentation page. You can browse the documentation by running any copy of Sawmill.
3. Live Reports & Graphs
   • Sawmill statistics are "live," for unparalleled flexibility while viewing the statistics. Sawmill shows you a collection of interlinked web pages which allow rapid navigation of the entire range of your log statistics.
4. Powerful Dynamic Filters
   • Sawmill allows dynamic segmentation of reports through its advanced filtering capabilities. Simple one-click "zoom" filters provide easy zooming into any item appearing in an report. For more advanced dynamic filtering, Sawmill provides advanced Boolean (AND/OR/NOT) selection based on multiple criteria, including wildcards and regular expressions. Log data can also be filtered on import using Log Filters, which use Salang, Sawmill's build-in scripting language, for extremely flexible filtering and conversion.
5. Attractive Statistics
   • Sawmill's statistics are attractive. The tables are colored for easy reading, and the graphs are designed to be easily readable. You'll be able to take the reports right out of Sawmill and show them to your boss, or your investors, or anyone else, without having to reformat them to make them look good - they already look good.
6. Database Driven
   • Sawmill stores your statistics in an optimized database. This can be Sawmill's own built-in high-performance database, or it can be a Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, or MySQL database.
7. Role-based Authentication
   • Sawmill supports role-based authentication, allowing you to control in detail what your Sawmill users have permission to do.
8. True Real-time reporting
   • Sawmill can be configured to provide true real-time reporting--up-to-the-second reporting on the current contents of your log files. There is no need for explicit database refreshes, and no need to wait for the log data to finish loading into the database before viewing reports from the latest data.
9. Very Fast
   • Since Sawmill generates a new report every time you click the mouse, it has been heavily optimized for speed. Most pages load in less than five seconds, so you won't be waiting for your statistics. There is no limit to the amount of data Sawmill can analyze, and even really huge datasets (gigabytes of log data) can be browsed in real time.
10. Easy To Install
    • Sawmill is extremely easy to install. For Windows or MacOS, just run the installer and launch the program. For UNIX, just tar/gunzip it and run the executable. Sawmill starts its built-in web server, and you're ready to start using it immediately.
11. Highly Configurable
    • Sawmill is highly configurable using a large set of configuration options. These options can be configured through the graphical user interface from any web browser. The options let you choose which reports are available (or you can create your own custom reports), what types of information are tracked, which log entries are filtered out, what the statistics look like, and much, much more.

Enhancements:

• Bugs fixed in version 8.0.9:
• • [532124] Filtered reports show higher numbers than unfiltered reports, when using "is NOT" filters.
  • [532124] The description of report filters sometimes contains a "not" even when it isn't a "not" filter, if there is also another filter which is a "not" filter.
  • [554819] Multiprocessor database builds create zombie processes on UNIX systems, which last for the duration of the build; on systems with very few processes available, this can cause errors during build, including, "Error spawning process for multi-threaded SSQL query split."
  • [584458] The sort_by (-sb) and sort_direction (-sd) command line options for "-a ect" are not documented.
  • [586149] Profiles with duplicate labels are allowed by the Create Profile Wizard
  • [590678] Log detail report is very slow, when using with a large internal database and no filters.
  • [591432] The update.pl script in the Extras folder does not copy the system.cfg file, so installations updated with that script rerun the installation process.
  • [591629] Scheduled tasks with a single profile, and multiple actions, run all actions simultaneously, instead of running them in sequence.
  • [592187] Database indices, and unique-tracking lists, can become corrupted on 32-bit systems, when processing large datasets (typically, any dataset which would require an index > 2GB, though it could happen as low as 600MB). This can give various errors about "array caches" or "ranges."
  • [592295] When using file-by-file distributed parsing, and "skip previously seen files on update," the list of previously-seen files is not recorded properly, resulting in some files being re-processed on update.
  • [595619] Imported v7 profiles show integers in the sum row of "start time" or "end time" columns, instead of showing "-".
  • [596194] When filtered, the Sessions Overview sometimes shows a negative number for "sessions for one-time users", and shows a few other incorrect values.
  • [596597] Database fields with large aggregated values (more than about 10 billion) incorrectly show very small values (< 10) in the Overview.
  • [596753] The current_log_pathname() function returns the wrong pathname for some log lines, when using multiprocessor database builds.
  • [597095] Removing database data with a date range in a MS SQL database gives an error, "Invalid column name."
  • [597455] Database indices can become corrupt on update, when using the internal database. This can cause errors when displaying filtered reports, or errors during future database updates. Possible error messages include "Unable to allocate N bytes of memory (Reallocating array cache)", "Internal: list N in IntegerLists X ends with -M, which is the start of a range", and possible others.
  • [597949] In real-time profiles, reports hang at 33% during the initial database build, if the build is using parsing servers (multiple processors), or if the file-by-file option is turned on.
  • [597953] Date filter expressions containing capital letters give an error, "Date filter not valid."
  • [598038] Log format plug-ins which use "collected listed", where field values are quoted (e.g., Fortigate), ignore the values immediately after quoted fields.
  • [601338] Cross-reference tables of imported Sawmill 7 profiles do not contain numerical session fields, resulting in slow report generation.
  • [601365] Regular expression or wildcard filters on the "hour of day" or "day of week" field are displayed incorrectly in the yellow filter description at the top of reports, as "corrupt date/time".
  • [601810] Database updates applied to databases imported from Sawmill 7, or to databases using non-internal database servers, do not propagate the new data to the xref tables in some cases, resulting in reports which do not have the latest data.
• New features in 8.0.9:
• • [569464] Added support for a new format variant of the NcFTP Xfer log. For now, the new fields at the end of each line are being ignored.
  • [584392] Added support for overriding the port of SFTP, by using "hostname:port" in the hostname field.

Requirements:

• Window (x86 or x64)
• Linux (x86 or x64)
• Solaris (SPARC, x86, or x64)
• FreeBSD (x86)
• OpenBSD (x86).
