Manipulate text via Java-script!
The JS Text-editor lets you easily interact-with and modify text in your browser, making it easier to perform some operations that would other-wise require macros; stand-alone scripts with IO operations; complicated BASH piping; or unreadable regular-expressions. Paste your text; write a few lines of code; and copy the result back to where you need it in a minute, needing only a browser-tab to do it!
Unlike any IDE or RTE plug-in, it can also be used any-time; any-where. You can even down-load it as a self-contained HTML file for off-line use!
Access it at https://tukkek.github.io/js-text-editor/.
Down-load stand-alone file (right-click and save-as), https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tukkek/js-text-editor/refs/heads/main/index.html.
The code-panel defines a function that receives 2 models of the text from the left-panel:
lines, which is an array of the text as split by new-linestext, the raw-text as a string
Either or both parameters can be used and the function can return:
- A string, which will be displayed as-is
- An array, whose elements will be joined with new-lines
- Any other value that will be coerced to a string via
value.toString()
The result can then be copied to the clip-board for external-use or sent to the left-panel for further editing.
