file name in title bar of window
i would like to know how to only show the file name in the title bar of the window. currently it shows the entire path to the file, which is too long, i can't see the file name. for example i may have 5 different windows open within a textpad session, so i'm not necessarily talking about the main window, just the subwindows. anybody?
I've seen this asked but never solved.... Here are possible workarounds:
1) View > Document tabs. Each tab should contain a file name.
2) If you usually work with files from one folder, you can use VSubst to assign a virtual drive letter to that long path. For eamples, "C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\My Documents\somefile.txt" could become "Z:\somefile.txt"
3) I could make a program that runs in the background and modifies the titlebar the way you want. I did something like that in this collection of utils I need to update.
