I just downloaded using the link here and got the previous version 6.3.1. Downloaded again from the website and got the right one. The link on the website Download page (Portable Version) is different to the one here. |
TextWorx lets you access a large suite of text manipulation functions within any text editor or browser. It provides a universal context menu and custom toolbar/s that you invoke with a hotkey. To use, select the text that you wish to manipulate, then open the context menu and select the function that you wish to run the selected text against.
The things you can do includes: insert various date formats, change case to various different formats, delete duplicate lines, HTML tags, multiple regex search-and-replace etc. Note that you can easily add your own functions by editing a INI file, so it can be fully customized to your own needs.

A very handy tool that adds many(!) functions to all text editors. |
FreeCAD is an parametric 3D modeler that lets you sketch geometry-constrained 2D shapes and use them as a base to build 3D objects. The program also allows you to easily modify your design by going back into your model history and changing its parameters.
FreeCAD reads and writes to many open file formats such as STEP, IGES, STL, SVG, DXF, OBJ, IFC, DAE.

Win 7 users may encounter an error starting FreeCAD, due to a missing 64-bit .dll file.

Also note that virtually every new release updates some plugins, and version 4.65 is no exception. Most users may want to go to https://www.irfanview.com/plugins.htm and download the 32- or 64-bit package, and dump them into the Irfanview Plugins subdirectory.

I notice in 4.67 that the OCR plugin is updated. It suggests using the Tesseract OCR, which I suspect is not portable. When I test it I will be looking to see if it can be made portable, and if it works with 32-bit Irfanview (there are a number of limitations with the 64-bit Irfanview so I am staying there).

Starting from ver. 4.67.2, the new OCR plugin can read QR Codes and Barcodes by itself, without any Tesseract. |

This note on the download page: |
Textify lets users copy text from such normally static dialog boxes, system messages, program tabs and more. Ideal for quickly taking down diagnostic/error messages in system testing, the program lets you grab part or all of the needed text. It also can launch web services such as Google Translate or external programs.
The program also grabs the "alt" text and URL of web images.

@stevenmonrad: as a suggestion, being a portable program, you could just fire Textify whenever needed and close it afterwards...
