gan,

You wrote "If you want to have a shortcut to start textpad and open a file with a specific name you can simply create a shortcut for textpad with the filename (including the path) as the parameter."

Want a shortcut to open a file with Textpad

The catch is the file has no extension, yet can be read with Textpad.

Thanks
