MarcEdit 6.0 Update

This update is coming a little later than I’d hoped, but I’ve been busying myself with a couple of projects that have been consuming some of my off hours.  Today’s update deals with a handful of issues, as well as provides some new functionality. 

Changes:

  • Bug Fix: Edit Field Function: Field recursion switch (/r) was broken in the last update.  This has been corrected.
  • Enhancement: Edit Field Function: LDR editing support has been added to the function.
  • Enhancement: MarcEditor: Keyboard shortcut for jump to page and jump to records have been added.
  • Enhancement: RDA Helper:  Added a new option to the 260/264 translation that enables users to always utilize a copyright or phonograph symbol.
  • Enhancement: RDA Helper:  Updated the RDA Helper to support the manufacturer or distributor subfields.  When the program encounters these in the 260, the appropriate 264 with second indicator 2 or 3 will be created.
  • Enhancement: RDA Helper:  The new option has been added to the task list.
  • Enhancement: Linked Records Tool:  I’ve added a new option to the Linked Records to allowing the program to embed $0 links to VIAF. 
  • Enhancement: MARCSplit:  The save directory now automatically sets to the desktop rather than the root drive.
