Is there a way to have files opened in ascending order.

Is there a way to have multiple files opened in alphabetically-ascending order, based on the filenames?
For eg,
Currently the document tabls show up as windows.txt, tooldocs.txt, sqls.txt, fruits.txt
I would like them to open up as fruits.txt, sqls.txt, tooldocs.txt, windows.txt.

thanx

You can drag and drop the document tabs into any order you like.

If you are always opening the same set of files, you can save them as a Workspace using the Workspace / Save As command from the File menu. All of these files will then exist in the .tws file that is created. Consequently, all of these files will be opened, the next time you start TextPad, as long as the option to "Reload last workspace at startup" is enabled on the General Preferences page. The document tabs will remain in the order that they are saved.

I hope this helps.

Awesome. That worked.
By the way, I tried both: using the "Reload Last Workspace at startup" and creating a .tws (workspace file) and opening it.
