C++ String Converter

[BlindSide]

Any of you ever tried sticking a gigantic, multi-page string in C++ source? Its very annoying, you have to manually add new lines and " at every line! Well I got sick of it so I decided to check out wxDevCPP's dialog making capabilities, and infact, it was very nice and easy to use, and I made this app in minutes.

Basically, paste your string inside the "Input" textbox and press "Convert" or "Convert and auto-copy" and it will convert your string so that it can be used in C++ source straight away!

Eg

Original String:

Code: Select all

Blah
Blah
Blah

Converted String:

Code: Select all

"Blah\n"
"Blah\n"
"Blah\n"

There was one tiny problem with wxDevCPP, however. Even with best optimisations and debug mode disabled, this simple exe ended up at 3mb!

Anyway, I hope someone finds this useful, get it here: http://irrlichtirc.g0dsoft.com/BlindSid ... verter.zip
