Cursor-pos after load of .LOG file

Post by henrix72se »

TextPad like Notepad does always start a newline at the end of a file and inputs actual date n time, if first line starts with .LOG

However, Notepad does always also move the cursor to the end of the file for direct input, which TextPad do not. :(

How can I make TextPad to do this? Or is this maybe something for a future release.

Of course, this isn't critical, but everything that is good, can be better :wink:

thanks for a great tool

Change whatever shortcut you use for that action (preferably the OPEN command for .log files).

Immediately after the filename, add
(999999999)
this will make textpad jump to the given line number (or if the given line number is higher than the highest existing line number, to the last line).
.
Make sure you choose a line number higher than any existing line number.
