Closing a file with a macro

Dave Stillman · Post by **Dave Stillman** » Fri Jan 11, 2002 6:43 pm

I am trying to write a macro that opens a file, modifies it, and closes it. I haven't been able to close a file while recording a macro, because the menu item is disabled. Has anyone else seen this behavior in Textpad 4.4? (That's what I'm running. I haven't installed the newest version because I didn't want to rewrite all my macros.)

I'd like to do the same thing, but also can't. I'm using textpad 4.5

Have you thought about assigning a key combo to FileClose
(Configure -> Preferences -> Keyboard => File => FileClose) and then use that in your macro?
