Saving files and saving sessions

[tmsg]

If I start Cud with two files on the command line:

Code: Select all

cudatext 1.txt 2.txt

and leave Cud immediately the session is saved.

If I start Cud with two files on the command line:

Code: Select all

cudatext 1.txt 2.txt

and change one file and then leave Cud the "Save tabs?" dialog pops up. If I decline saving ("Don't save") the session is not saved. The same thing happens if I load a named session on the command line (.cuda-session file).

Further, if I suppress loading a session with -ns but simply load a couple of files and want this set saved in the end in the history session, I can't because Cud seems unwilling to save a session if -ns was given.

EDIT: Or put differently and more simply, no matter what I do (whether I load a named session or use the default session, load files, save files, don't load or don't save files etc etc), I always want the session state saved when I leave Cud. ALWAYS.

1. I found code for it, it was made specially but dunno when... not sure we must change it..

Code: Select all

    case Form.ShowModal of
      //"Don't save/ Keep in session"
      mrClose:
        Result:= true;
      //"Cancel"
      mrCancel:
        Result:= false;
      //"Don't save"
      mrNoToAll:
        begin
          Result:= true; //like for mrClose
          UiOps.ReopenSession:= false; //dont save tabs to session <===========!
        end;

and it looks like logical action.

Need to think..

No, not to me.

Loading a session is one thing and often I don't want to load a session at all but start afresh (or if you prefer, want to start with an empty session) and build up a set of files.

Saving this set into a session is a completely different thing for me and as I already wrote, I always want to save session state.

Ok, but if you see the code above, you see that
//"Don't save/ Keep in session"
//"Don't save"
they differ in one thing-- 2nd disables saving session.
if I remove this diff, then 2 buttons will do the same!

So can you press "don't save/ keep in session"? why do you press "don't save"?

I can't press this famous button because it's not there! See attached image.

For completeness' sake, in my user.json I have:
"ui_reopen_session_cmdline": true,
"ui_auto_save_session": true,

As "ui_reopen_session": true, is already the default I don't set this in my user.json.

I have shown this btn. Beta http://www.uvviewsoft.com/c/
Lets test how it works
Before it was hidden because of opt ui_history_disabled flag 't'

This beta seems to solve problem 1 (not 2 though).

However, it introduces another problem not in 115.0. I start Cud fresh with this command line:

Code: Select all

d:\pApps\CudaText\cudatext.exe -s=d:\pApps\CudaText\cudabrief 1.txt

This works as expected and loads 1.txt.

The second start, with the first instance still running:

Code: Select all

d:\pApps\CudaText\cudatext.exe -s=d:\pApps\CudaText\cudabrief 2.txt

produces this window:
