DIFfersifier 3.1: Convert Data from Stacks

DIFfersifier 3.1 released

NIJMEGEN 26 JANUARY 2006 – Today, Economy-x-Talk.com releases DIFfersifier
3.1.0. DIFfersifier 3.1.0 is a simple utility, which makes conversion of
text data in HyperCard, MetaCard and Revolution stacks as easy as possible.
The DIF and Merge file formats that are created by DIFfersifier can be
imported by most, if not all, well-known database applications. A
tab-delimited text format is also available, enhancing flexibility for
those who are creating their own database software to replace their
database stacks. DIFfersifier can also create HTML tables.

The conversion process only takes a few steps. After starting
DIFferisifier, a small window appears. Click the Select Stack button and
open a HyperCard, MetaCard or Revolution stack. Choose a file format and a
background or group and press enter. After a few seconds, you are asked to
give your new file a name and save it.

Advantages of DIFfersifier are: you don’t have to write your own script for
text export; field names keep preserved if the DIF or Merge formats are
chosen; and return characters can be automatically replaced by vertical
tabs to make sure that e.g. FileMaker keeps together text that belongs in a
single field. DIFfersifier is also particularly useful for those who don’t
have access to a platform that can run HyperCard. You don’t need a classic
Mac OS to access the data in your HyperCard stacks. This conversion utility
runs on Mac OS X, Windows 95 up to and including XP, Linux, and older
Macintosh systems.

DIFfersifier is shareware. Although this utility has been improved, prices
stay the same. The non-commercial license for personal use costs 14.95
euro. The price for the commercial license is 69.00 euro. License holders
receive full support and are allowed to convert an unlimited number of
cards, whereas unregistered copies of DIFfersifier can convert up to 50
cards. More information about DIFfersifier can be found at
