MEP Technologies Catalog 3. MEPBUILD 1.0 MEPBUILD is a useful programmers tool. If you are familiar with C or BASIC languages, MEPBUILD gives you many of the preprocessor commands offered by them but will work on any text file. It makes developing source code easy and allows you to update many programs or documents with a single command. Features: - You can include/merge files into your source code or document (#include). This means you can develop libraries of code/text and automatically insert them into your files. If you change the library file, then all your source code and documents are updated when run through MEPBUILD. - Libraries can be located by entering a file spec or by using a default library path. The path can be easily changed via a DOS environment variable. - Libraries may be #included to any level deep (a #include file may #include a file and so on). - A conditional if-then-else operator is featured (#if- #elif-#else). This allows you to add code/text to your file depending on what variables you have previously defined. - A powerful search and replace/macro feature is offered (#define VARNAME). This allows you to search your text for a key word and replace it with another value. - A Shareware Version is offered so that you might see if you like it or not before purchasing a Registered Version. - Requires a PC or higher with at least 256K RAM. - Great for AutoLISP programmers or generating software ascii (text) manuals. - Compatible with other preprocessors. MEP Technologies Catalog 4. CPROP 1.2 CPROP was designed to make the task of editing text and entity properties quick and easy. Originally it was developed for dealing with topographic survey information and converting drawings from one standard to another. The main benefit of using CPROP is that it lets you see what properties you are about to change before you do so by using AutoCAD 12's dialogue boxes. It also works on entire groups of entities rather than each one individually, which adds up to a big saving in time when working with large amounts of data. This isn't just another entity editor, it lets you do things no other program on the market offers. Features: - Change text alignment. - Add/replace text before/after existing value. - Search and replace (includes a case sensitive switch). - Set/scale text height, width, obliging angle, rotation. - Change text style. - Convert text to upper/lower case. - Set text mirroring values. - Help system (disabled in windows). - Text changes works with ATTDEFS, ATTRIBUTES, DIMENSIONS and TEXT entities. - Works globally on groups of objects- you don't have to modify each one individually. - Changes can be made by picking text/entities with desired properties. - Filter lists provided for property changes. - Changes can be made relative to UCS or WCS regardless of current coordinate system. - Properties can be set to your current drawing settings. - Switch provided for excluding/including 3D object elevation changes. - Requires AutoCAD 12 (both Windows and DOS). MEP Technologies Catalog 5. PROTECT 2.0 PROTECT is a programmer's tool for all versions of AutoCAD. It allows you to 'compress' your LISP and DCL files, reducing their size by 50-70% and making them virtually unreadable by anything other than AutoCAD. This allows you to protect your source code from being copied or modified by others. When you spend a lot of time writing a program, nothing is more frustrating than having someone copy your file, change a line or two, and call it their own. Another scenario is having unauthorized personnel change your data. PROTECT eliminates these concerns. Features: - Reduces file size by 50-70%. - Tested on AutoCAD's source files. - Allows you to make your source code unreadable by anything but AutoCAD. - IBM PC or compatible system required. - Multiple files may be compressed at a single command line. - Shareware version offered for evaluation purposes.
