Running external software and passing current filename

Post by Ingus »

Is there an option to run external let's say commandline program and pass the current filename to it?

I mean I really lack the Subversion support and could use tsvn command line client, however for that I need to pass the current filename to tsvn.

I've tried using Options -> Preferences -> Tools -> Programs, but can't seem to pass the filename to the program this way.

The question is - is there such an option to run the programs this way? If not then please add this to feature requests (including adding shortcuts to these commands).

Thanks in advance!

Try Editors instead of programs ;) Editor exe is called with file name passed as parameter.
