MIDex -- a BBEdit extension
===========================
MIDex is a BBEdit extension for doing character set translation.
It contains translation tables for Mac <-> ISO Latin-1 (8859-1) and
Mac <-> DOS (Code Page 437).

The conversion can be done in place, to a new window or the converted
text can be copied to the clipboard. If there is a selection, MIDex
will act on the selection, otherwise it will process the whole window.

This archive contains two extensions:

* MIDex 1.2.2 simplifies the selection of other tables via
a popup menu. Additional tables can be added with ResEdit.
Version 1.2.2 doesn't interpret metacharacters in menu text.

* MIDex 1.3.2 is the "tool version" and therefore requires at
least version 3.5.2 of BBEdit. This tool also supports
additional tables.
Version 1.3.2 doesn't interpret metacharacters in menu text.

MIDex is freeware.

The MIDex extensions and the Mac <-> DOS translation tables
are copyright © by Olav Brinkmann.
The Mac <-> ISO tables are from A. Pirard (ULg) - mai 1992.
The Mac -> US ASCII table is from Brian Clark.
