Hi there,
I'm currently trying to do some research for a next software application I'm developing and I'm very interested in your opinion.
In nearly all of the projects I'm doing for customers (large Telcos) we need to handle files from host systems that are mostly fixed blocked.
Now it's very painful to edit/view/search those files in a standard text editor because you do not see the underlying record structure. I know for the host there is an application called "file aid" but for PC's I haven't found any (well Microfocus has such an editor in it's tool suite but it's old and very expensive).
My questions:
- Do you know any such editor that runs on Windows/Mac/Unix for an affordable price?
- Would you need such an editor?
- If you would be willing to buy such a tool what would be the features you'd like to see?
- Would you be willing to beta test?
Thanks for your help,
Torsten Uhlmann
