Alternative way to create files without opening in editor

Post by *Hacker »

Hi,
We now have cm_EditNewFile 1 to create a new file without opening it in an editor.
Could TC perhaps support creating a new file without opening an editor from the classic Shift-F4 dialog as well? E.g. when there is a leading pipe symbol or so:

Code: Select all

|test1.txt
This would create test1.txt without opening an editor.

TIA
Roman
Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.

cm_EditNewFile 1, if you enter an existing name, does not create a file with auto-naming by counter, so for now scripts look like a more rational/optimal solution.

Shift-F4
leading pipe symbol
Not just a checkbox "Open in editor" in Shift+F4 dialog, but a "leading pipe symbol"!
