Topic: Startup in Document Selector instead of editor window
Replies: 9

Hi Dan... That didn't work. The document selector is still the focus point. Perhaps it was not saved correctly? Try this example: If you have document open, set to word wrap, and cursor in middle of some line when you do this. Have auto-load last workspace activated. When you have the document in th...

:idea:
This may be a work around for you:

:arrow: Create a Workspace and give it the name of the document. When you open a Workspace, its name shows up before the normal TextPad heading.

Just a passing thought....good luck..... :D

Create Wordspaces. When you open up to a Workspace, it will be in the same condition, including cursor position, as when you saved it. There is also an option to reload the last workspace when TextPad starts, on the General page of the Preferences dialog box. See TextPad Help on "How to Use Wor...

You got the idea: Or something that went like that? No one can answer that but you. It depends on the content of the document you are looking at. If there are never an other instances of "@" you may be OK. If the line continues and wraps you will have to allow for that. If desired address ...

This is another candidate to make a TextPad Macro to do this for you. These are the steps to follow to make the macro: Assume the following email format: From: Somebody@myplace.com Date: Tue, 10 Dec 2002 18:23:53 EST Subject:This is a test To: myname@home.com ============================= TextPad Ma...

You commented: Now, if I could just give TextPad a list of files, not extensions, that would be even better -- but I'm not complaining.) This should solve your problem: Start TextPad with the command option @filename. This will open all the files that are listed, one per line, in the specified file....

Jeffy asks: Who's brave enough to ask? I am more than willing to ask.. Why not TextPad? Even if the documentation is crappy or it's just a source code snippet. Give us something here... Hello Helios.

More analysis: I would concur that Jeffy's reference to byte H is probably the number of macro "steps" but the definition of a "step" is still unclear. Each of the "goto" commands below were counted as 1 "step", no additional steps showed up ==================...

Re Jeffy's inputs: G is definitely not a NULL. It is a 00 or 01 or 02 depending on how macro is to repeat. P is defiinitely not based on the value in N. I have identical values in N but different values in P. I believe P is based on Menu Commands, Buttons, etc. Will be doing some more testing in tha...

I can provide a number of Macro Scheduler scripts. But what so you mean "work with TextPad"? You can use TextPad as a Macro Scheduler editor, there is a syntax file available here. If that is what you want, then any script will do, but what you are looking for then is TextPAd to work with ...

Perhaps this is a function of each emailer? :?:
