What is Large File Editor?

The large file editor looks and feels like any other text editor, but with one significant difference, it can open and edit huge files instantly, essential for any big data projects.

Most editors work by loading the whole document into memory. This is not possible if the document is to big to load into memory. The Large File Editor overcomes this by only reading the section being displayed, so it's fast, lightweight and able to run on a low specification PC.

The editor has the look and feel of a normal text editor, having all the editing features you are familiar with; Cut & Paste, Select, Select All, Undo, Redo, Find & Replace, Goto Line etc. It also has XML Specific tools like XML Validation and Formatting.

There is also a Binary mode, making it possible to edit, add and delete binary data an extremely valuable feature as most binary editors do not allow insertion or deletion.

Increasing file sizes means the ability to view and edit these files is becoming more vital in every day life. Typical applications include

  • Big Data Viewer
  • Big Data Editor
  • Log Viewer
  • Validate and fix data feeds (XML, CSV, EDI etc)
  • Split large files
  • Extracting sub sets of data
