Or you capture output, but it will open the output dock afterwards even if you don't want/need it.</p> <p>Therefore, this requires little new code. Perhaps as entry in the Console I/O tab &gt; Capture output &gt; <strong>Ignore (suppress output)</strong>?</p> <p>Or as new checkbox "Run non-executable file (will start the default application if extension is associated)" </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/619#post-2656 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 13:26:25 +0000 simon 2656@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>@forsooth: Yup, being worked on, slowly :) </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/619#post-2652 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 02:55:02 +0000 forsooth 2652@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Hi, </p> <p>Maybe a way so that the user could build and integrate a snippet file?</p> <p>Thanks. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/619#post-2618 Thu, 03 Dec 2009 22:34:35 +0000 simon 2618@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>@theA51TS This is the SmartStart feature which already exists.

Put them on the website but don't include them with pnotepad by default. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/619#post-2537 Thu, 29 Oct 2009 18:18:27 +0000 NickDMax 2537@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Well I would really like to see the ability to create a new tool based upon a current one. i.e. copy a tool. For example I have several version of my C++ Compilers (debug, compile, compile to assembly, etc...) It is kind of a pain to copy these setting over just to make a few minor changes. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/619#post-2455 Wed, 30 Sep 2009 21:33:37 +0000 nfearnley 2455@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>HTML documents should have an tool to validate through w3.org's validator. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/619#post-2343 Sat, 15 Aug 2009 21:35:41 +0000 CoDEmanX 2343@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>something comparable to N++ TextFX maybe? </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/619#post-2288 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 21:45:48 +0000 castorp 2288@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>I would like to see HTMLTidy integrated with PNotepad by default (similar to how PSPad is doing it) </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/619#post-2247 Thu, 16 Jul 2009 21:17:22 +0000 zinahe 2247@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Sorry Simon, but I think this is just a waste of time. I mean, the feature is already there, and I see no reason to spoon feed the programmers. May be I am preaching to the choir, but "PN" is a programmer's notepad, and we should let the programmers configure their own tools, please.</p> <p>As a programmer, I can say that some of the joy of using PN comes from customizing it to fit my needs. </p> <p>IMHO, We should be thinking about new capabilities to build into the tool instead.</p> <p>Zinahe A. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/619#post-2245 Thu, 16 Jul 2009 11:28:31 +0000 simon 2245@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Yup, view in default is a good idea for XML too.</p> <p>A couple of sample compilers showing configuration would be a good idea, and failing that some files you can download from the website that set up the tools for you for different toolchains could be useful I guess. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/619#post-2243 Thu, 16 Jul 2009 10:26:09 +0000 Nux 2243@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>XML could have some "view in the default browser" too.</p> <p>I think any default tools would be great even as a "working example" (too see what they can be and to build your own tools on them). And to have an easy start it would good idea to add some compiler configuration, but (if this is possible/not too complicated) PN should check (before running) if the compiler is available and display a warning that would explain where to change a path to it. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/619#post-2217 Mon, 13 Jul 2009 10:32:23 +0000 simon 2217@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>It's clear that PN should come with some default tools configured. What tools should I add by default and why?</p> <p>The obvious:</p> <p><strong>Default Browser</strong><br /> Set for HTML files to view them.</p> <p><strong>Run</strong><br /> Set for batch/cmd files, to run them and capture output.</p> <p>What else should be configured? Should PN include compiler/run configurations for languages even though the user may not have those tools installed? </p>
