The modern software industry has a tradition of copying and pasting source code. This is the single most widely distributed method of producing less-than-perfect programs. Thousands of large and expensive projects contain literally millions of identical or nearly identical fragments of code costing millions of dollars per year for additional support and maintenance. Enter AntiCutAndPaste!

AntiCutAndPaste is designed to search for plagiarism - text fragments that have been copied and pasted in programming language source code or plain text. It is tested on sources from large C++, Visual Basic, Delphi, Java, and C# projects. Text processing algorithms used are very fast and can handle up to three million C++ code lines in one minute on ordinal PC computer. Minor modifications of code are ignored during the search. Both GUI and command line versions of program are included in the installation. Reports are sorted conveniently by the total size of all similar fragments and there is many report customization options. AntiCutAndPaste integrates easily into Microsoft Visual Studio so that you can jump to source line by clicking compiler-style report in the output window.

The TextTransformer can analyze texts and transform them. For this you have to write simple rules describing the structure of the source text and determining how the parts it shall be transformed to the target text. A single rule for example is enough to make multiple replacements of words. Existing examples can be modified to achieve quick results. Every change can be tested immediately. For this, the TextTransformer allows stepwise transformations in a debugger, where you can see immediately what happens. So the development even of complex programs becomes a game. Simple rules can be combined to arbitrary complex programs. Even grammars of programming languages can be described, e.g. to translate them into another one.

The free version (not time limited) has nearly all possibilities to analyze texts and to transform them. After you have installed the TextTransformer, the functionality of the standard version (see below) can be tested for 30 days.

The standard version has an additional transformation manager to transform groups of files interactively. This version also has augmented interpreter capabilities: subexpressions of tokens can be accessed and containers can be used.

In the professional version of the TextTransformer a ready transformation program can be exported as c++-code for use in other software products.

The key features of the TextTransformer summarized:
Extended LL(1)-top down technology
Definitions of text elements by regular expressions in POSIX style
Definitions of grammar rules syntactically as meta regular expressions
Skipping irrelevant parts of text by means of the SKIP-symbol
Integrated debugger
Integrated simple c++ interpreter
Syntax highlighting
Type checking and immediate finding of errors
Automatically testing
Interactivity, to translate selected parts of the text
Transformation manager to handle file groups
Commandline version
Extensive documentation
