some little modifications more

Have uploaded the next version with module for exporting documents and some more new features.

Test it!

Bruno You Are the best! Thank you!

I do my best, but I’m far away from being the best.
The next version is coming soon, with complete changed workflow with integrated up and download. You can save all configurations source-file-based in workspaces/actions and bindings to the document-tree. And there is a plugin where you can see by clicking in the document-tree all actions which has bindings to this document in the document-overview as a new tab for direct-starting this pre-configured actions. Now you will have this placeholders for replacing and PHx: source: [#s#...#s#] default-values: [#d#...#d#] doc-tree: [#t#...#t#] resource-values(export): [#r#...#r#] . Hoping someone is interested on this.

This sounds great, don’t know how I missed this release. Thanks

This should be in the repository.

After some Testing and bugfixing, I think, it comes to the repository.
Here is it for Testing! v09.

Have modified fast_content_csv, so you can edit many documents at once directly in the manager.
