I have a case where I want a single command to do things both internally as well as externally from Textpad. It seems the only way to do this is with a Tool for external, and a Macro for internal. Here are the specifics.

I want to launch a tool to do some FTP'ing, then I want to close the document in Textpad, then delete the file. I want to know if there is a way to either a) launch a Tool from a Macro or launch a Macro from a Tool. The tool is purely a command prompt kind of thing, so if I can work it from the prompt, that's fine.

So, if there is a way to ftp, close, and delete a document, let me know please.

Thanks

You could create the tool you describe, then record a macro which calls that tool. Would that work?
