I'm using Visual C++ 2005 in Windows, and I'm writing a console
application to run from the command prompt.
I was just wondering if it was possible to have my program open up
Notepad at a certain point so that users could write an essay in it,
and then have my program save the file to a specified location after a
certain amount of time has passed and close Notepad again. Basically,
I'd like to use Notepad for the essay writing capabilities rather than
the command prompt, but would like complete control over when it
opens/closes and where it saves the current writing to.
If this is possible, could you explain how it can be done? (It doesn't
have to be Notepad, rather it could be any basic text editor.
So far, all I've found is that I can open Notepad up from my code
using:
system("notepad.exe");
Thanks in advance.
