Programmable interface for TextPad?

Post by vahepoladian »

Greetings,

I was kindly wondering if there is a programmable interface available for TextPad? I would like to be able to do a few operations, such as:

1. start / stop textpad,
2. set the window size and position of the application,
3. load / unload files into text pad,
4. choose the file to edit,
5. set the position of the cursor,
6. set the settings such as "read", "ovr", "caps", etc,
6. etc,

also, with respect to the setter / loader operations, i would also like to be able to query the values, e.g. find out where the window is, how big it is, which files are loaded, where is the cursor,

Thanks,

Vahe

I have been using Macro Scheduler to automate TextPad and other programs. I am also able to use Macro Scheduler to create editable macros in TextPad. Too many features to list here.

Macro Scheduler is available at http://www.mjtnet.com/index.htm?ref=rmh ... rg_2644641.
