Thanks for taking the time to explain! :) I have already tested PDF files. Thanks for the tip.
What are there 2 plugin files for 1 file type for? "*<PSPad>\Plugins\Some.exe*" <= I call it "_higher plugin_" to avoid misunderstanding. "*<PSPad>\Plugins\FileTypeu3.bat*" <= I call it "_deeper plugin_". pspad: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When file extension you want to open is equal any file type plugin PSPad call plugin to open file, _plugin creates temporary file_ and PSPad open it. Save process is the same - file is saved from PSPad, send to plugin and _plugin saves it_. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So far I have not been able to get the deeper plugin to save a file. I used the defaults from the PSPad help, e.g.. if %1 == -L "%~d0%~p0..\some.exe" %2 %3 if %1 == -S "%~d0%~p0..\some.exe" %2 %3 And I have made many more attempts. I guess that ALL the functionalities have to be built in first by the user? But this is just a guess, maybe I did something wrong. Is it possible to call a "some.exe" in any path with the deeper plugin, or does it have to be in the "<PSPad>\Plugins\" folder? -- <https://forum.pspad.com/read.php?2,75934,75937> PSPad freeware editor https://www.pspad.com
