If this is too hard (and it shouldn't be), then maybe simpler option is to (optionally) skip autosave in unnamed windows/tabs. I definitely want an autosave for unnamed buffers having just lost 15 minutes work modifying SQL scripts. Also a INI flag (so to speak) that TextPad did not shut down ...

I hate the simple stuff! <g>

I searched the forum and didn't find anything, I could have flubbed my keyword suggestion and this has already been posted. But if not....

Ah! That does the trick! I never use the document selector, so I would have never seen it. I guess I'll just have to change my work habits slightly.

I might be working with a dozen files at a time, I would love the ability to print all files in one fell swoop. And I could also see a print dialog that would show all buffer names and allow you to select open files individually.
