Please excuse the brief information about my idea. I wanted to know what you thought first.
With the possibility to assign special paths to the fav tools, the effort for PSPad is very low. No starting of programs is necessary, no catching of output, no parser, or anything else. More in detail. The user creates a VBScript that does whatever he wants, e.g. calling a compiler, starting a user converter, or ... In Fav-Tools the user opens the edit dialog for a Fav-Tool and enters a name for the tool. If he then enters the path and starts with 2 colons, all other settings are disabled. No parameters, no default directory, no log file, etc. Only tool name and special path. The user clicks on OK. When the user then starts the fav tool, all PSPad has to do is link to the menu item of the script. No further action is necessary. In other words: If the user double clicks the fav tool, it's the same as if he had clicked the menu, e.g. "Scripts" / "Todo list" / "View todos", and the script will be executed. Result: In the script the user can assign a shortcut. The user can now either click the fav tool or press his shortcut. ==> In both cases the corresponding menu item is started. I hope I could explain it a bit. ;-) [URL=https://www.directupload.net/file/d/5695/xtmecn7p_png.htm][IMG]https://s19. directupload.net/images/200111/temp/xtmecn7p.png[/IMG][/URL] -- <https://forum.pspad.com/read.php?2,71869,72407> PSPad freeware editor https://www.pspad.com
