Who really wants a bunch of “new X” pseudo-files hanging around?
“Let’s see, where did I put that important thing I wanted to save…was it in the new 16 file…no…maybe it was new 12…no…well…hmmm…it’s here somewhere…”
If it is important enough to type, it’s important enough to save properly, I always say.
Anyway, suggest you look at the Take Notes plugin as it offers up a better way than the unsaved “new X” file method. Or a few lines of Pythonscript yield the same functionality; I have this tied to an entry in my right-click context menu, I call it TempFileYyyyMmDdHhMmSs.py :
import os
import time
def TFYMDHMS__main():
temp_dir = os.environ['TEMP'] # or whatever...
ymdhms = time.strftime("%Y%m%d-%H%M%S_", time.localtime())
new_file_fullpath = temp_dir + os.sep + ymdhms + '.txt'
notepad.new()
editor.insertText(0, '?'); editor.deleteRange(0, 1) # modify file so it can be saved
notepad.saveAs(new_file_fullpath)
TFYMDHMS__main()
When run this script creates a new (saved) editor tab with a filename like this:
Imgur
And, obviously, once a file is named, it is saved along with other files making up a Session.
