  • MarcEdit 5.0: Generate Perl example

    So I’m wrapping this up as we speak.  I’ve been testing some of the instances and noticing that I’d left out a small block of code in the modified subfield section — so I’ll be finishing that tonight with the hope to post tonight.  But I thought I’d include a sample perl script generated by…

  • MarcEdit 5.0 Updates

    I won’t be posting these till tomorrow or Sunday, but here’s what’s coming: Script Maker:  Script maker will now support the generation of PERL scripts.  I’ve added the code to the interpreter and now its generating PERL scripts.  I need to test them.  Very likely, I’ll be fixing a few problems with them once I…

  • Using RegEx in C#

    Something I found out today that I thought interesting.  Within MarcEdit, I have one regular expression which looks for entities and converts them to their byte equivalents (i.e., &#1B;).  Since this regular expression has the potential to be called a number of times, I decided to make use of the RegEx compile option.  In the…

  • MarcEdit Script maker PERL template (for those wanting to take a look)

    So, the new Script maker uses templates — which is making my life much easier in terms of implementating the script maker because the lion share of the code isn’t in the compiled libraries.  It also what is making implementing new scripting languages possible.  This is because MarcEdit’s script maker actually writes a script in…

  • MarcEdit 5.0 — quick update

    In updating the script maker — I forgot to update the COM component that it links to.  Important stuff to have.  I’ve reposted the project as of 10:15 am Pacific Standard Time.  As usual, download from: http://oregonstate.edu/~reeset/marcedit/software/development/MarcEdit50_Setup.exe –tr

  • MarcEdit 5.0 update

    New updates to the MarcEdit 5.0 program.  The updates are as follows: Script Wizard:  The script wizard is back in MarcEdit.  Currently the script wizard only produces VBscripts (i.e., has the same functionality as the 4.6 version) — but the internal framework is such that new script language should be easy to add.  I’ll be…

  • MarcEdit Quick update

    Just a quick update.  I’m in the process of wrapping up the Script Maker.  It will look about the same but with a number of new options in the works.  First, the script maker will be able to produce new script languages.  Previously, the script maker only generated vbscripts.  Well, this version will create vbscript,…

  • MarcEdit 5.0 Updated

    Few updates worth noting from last night/this morning. 1) Added a new option in the Add/Delete Field Utility to allow users to insert a field into the last position in a record 2) Corrected a problem that allows new fields to be added/deleted after a non-numeric field has been added to a record 3) Corrected…

  • MarcEdit 5.0 Update

    I made a few updates over the weekend — though the are mostly fixing a few things: Delimited Text Translator:  The generated 008 field was too long.  The date information wasn’t being truncated correctly. UTF-8 => Marc8 translation:  I finally setup the translation to support the Greek and Greek Symbols as noted by the LC…

  • Project Gutenburg MARC records

    I’m not sure how many folks will be interested, but I had someone ask me how difficult it would be to generate MARC records from the Project Gutenburg RDF catalog records.  Since I couldn’t remember if anyone has already generated a process for creating MARC records from these sets — I quickly generated an XSLT…
