Session Remembering

Got this idea from firefox 3. I realised wouldn't it be great if you could save all the tabs in the same way firefox does.

When you have to stop working and shut your computer down. You can restart webuilder and the tabs can re-open (that you closed it with) as well. This would work well with the re-open and jump to line feature that is currently already in the software

This is already (sort of) implimented.
Click Tools and then Save a list of open files. To open a list, click Tools and Load a list of files.

I'm not sure I understand the request. When I close webuilder and reopen it, all of the tabs I had open before load right up. Not in front of it at the moment but perhaps it's something in the settings dialog?

or I'm completely missing it.

Never noticed it before, but yes, thats an option. Options, Preferences. Click General and there is a On startup option. By default this is Open a new document (which I've always had). You can change this to Open previously opened documents.

Simple when you know how! Thanks for the pointer!

Wow I didn't even notice that was there, thanks for that! I wonder how many other unknown features are hidden within?

a lot.

I think these dudes are so busy coding that they forget to uplevel some new stuff in the announcements posts. Gatis is a crazy machine. One of my favorite finds not in the announcements was that you can now use the same %token% multiple times in a snippet to have it autorepeat. like

Code: Select all

<select value="%entertext%">%entertext%</select>

or

Code: Select all

<div id="%entertext%">

<div> <!-- /end #%entertext% -->
where you only %entertext% once and it repeats it in both spots. So handy.
