Its a reasonable bug and when I saw behavior I knew it was something you'd be able to fix. I thought I could even handle it myself writing a custom launcher app, but figured why'd bother as I was sure you'd be on it. Anyhow thanks after switching to PN last week I'm hooked.</p> <p>For your fix, please consider these scenarios:</p> <p>1) User types "notepad" on command line. In this case, Programmer's Notepad will actually open the notepad.exe executable.</p> <p>2) User selects multiple .txt files in Windows Explorer, right-clicks and selects "open" from the context menu. This is the case where someone opens multiple files at once. I think your suggested solution will work for this case, but thought I'd mention it in case you want to try it. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/726#post-2842 Mon, 25 Jan 2010 11:47:50 +0000 simon 2842@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>This will be fixed with the next testing release. I hadn't thought about the fact that notepad can only edit a single file and so assumes that everything on the command line is a single filename. As of the next release -z means skip the next parameter, and assume that everything after that is a single file which makes this work. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/726#post-2761 Fri, 22 Jan 2010 08:31:00 +0000 fschwiet 2761@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>I am having some trouble with this. Its working, some. I am running 64bit, Windows Server 2008 R2. This is the registry settings, as exported by regedit:</p> <p>[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\notepad.exe]<br /> "Debugger"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Programmer's Notepad\\pn.exe --allowmulti -z"</p> <p>This fine if say I open a text file that has no spaces in the names. There are two cases where it doesn't work well.</p> <p>1) Double-clicking a text file in explorer like "some text.txt" will cause Programmer's Notepad to try to open two separate files, "some" and "text.txt".</p> <p>2) Using "notepad some.txt" in the command console causes Programmers Notepad to want to open "notepad" as well as "some.txt".</p> <p>Workable so I'm still using it. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/726#post-2648 Thu, 07 Jan 2010 05:11:00 +0000 cyberace 2648@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Thanks for your help! :) </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/726#post-2645 Sun, 03 Jan 2010 22:18:01 +0000 simon 2645@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>See here: <a href="http://untidy.net/blog/2009/11/03/replacing-notepad-with-pn-via-image-file-execution-options/" rel="nofollow">http://untidy.net/blog/2009/11/03/replacing-notepad-with-pn-via-image-file-execution-options/</a> </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/726#post-2637 Wed, 23 Dec 2009 02:31:08 +0000 cyberace 2637@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>I find pNotepad a wonderful tool for programmers so I want to replace the system default Notepad with it, how? :) </p>
