There are several utility programs available that allow you to filter and manipulate your GEDCOM files. You may wish to remove sensitive information from your GEDCOM file before using GED-GEN.

• As an example, see Res Privata from Naiborly Software. This program is no longer available, but you might still find it on the Internet.

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) utilities allow you to transfer your web page files to your website at your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

• As an example, see CoreFTP.

Data compression utilities allow you to compress files. They are useful for bundling your web page files for transfer to your website, especially if you have hundreds of files.

• As an example, see ZipGenius.
