File Open Show End Not Start

[Random Void User]

I would like CudaText to open all files at the end, not the start. It would always seek to, and show, the last part of every file opened. I found ui_reload_tail, but think I need a different option. Is one available? I prefer not to use "sessions" or similar data records, I just want a master switch, not a per-file switch. Thanks!

Here is primitive plugin. it turns Wrap-mode off (it is required for long lines) and scrolls to the end in on_open event.

        nvis= ed_self.get_prop(PROP_VISIBLE_LINES)
        ed_self.set_caret(0, nlines-1)
        ed_self.set_prop(PROP_WRAP, False)
        ed_self.set_prop(PROP_LINE_TOP, max(0, nlines-nvis+1))

What about just using the ctrl-end hotkey in that plugin,

Code: Select all

ed.cmd(cmds.cCommand_GotoTextEnd)

I tried it too, but due to context - on_open event - command don't fully work (caret jumps, but scroll position don't always jump or jumps to last_line-1). It needs investigation why it don't fully work in on_open, not sure I want it.
