Automatisering today announced the availability of Troi Text Plug-in
3.0 for FileMaker Pro 8.5.
What is Troi Text Plug-in?
Troi Text Plug-in is a very powerful tool for for dealing efficiently
with text in your FileMaker Pro database. It adds the following
functions to FileMaker Pro:
– Combine sets from 2 text fields:
* get all lines that are the same
* get all lines that differ
* and other combinations
– Get (unique) lines and sort words and lines – Make a text sum from
a related file that updates without a script – Parse XML text into
fields
New Features
Troi Text Plug-in 3.0 adds these new functions and features: – Made
compatible with FileMaker Pro 8.5. – (Mac OS X) Converted to
Universal plug-in which runs natively on PowerPC and Intel Macs. –
Updated the User Guide for version 3.0. We also improved the links in
the table of contents, so the links now also work with the Preview
application of Mac OS X.
SumText now native in FileMaker Pro 8.5
FileMaker Pro 8.5 has a new List(…) function, which is similar to
the SumText functionality of Troi Text Plug-in. As this new function
is native to FileMaker it is best to use it for all FileMaker Pro 8.5
only deployments. If, however, you deploy your solution on a mixed
FileMaker 8.5, 8 and/or 7 platform, the SumText function can still be
used.

Other Troi Plug-ins for FileMaker Pro 8.5 and Intel Macs
FileMaker Pro 8.5 for Mac OS X is a Universal Application and can run
natively on PowerPC and Intel Macintoshes. However, when FileMaker is
launched on Intel Macs, it only loads Universal plug-ins. It does not
load PowerPC plug-ins. Therefore all plug-ins need to be converted to
Universal plug-ins. Troi has already released these other new
Universal versions:
Troi Activator Plug-in, version 2.5.1: lets you trigger scripts on
the same or other computers.
Troi Dialog Plug-in, version 4.5.1: lets you create powerful custom dialogs.
Troi Encryptor Plug-in, version 2.5: offers industry strength
encryption and decryption of data and images.
Troi File Plug-in, version 3.5.2: lets you manipulate your files and
folders directly from your databases.
Troi URL Plug-in, version 2.0: lets you get and post data and
retrieve images from the Internet.
