Linux script for viewing TEdit files #1795

Open pamoroso opened 3 months ago

pamoroso commented 3 months ago

While browsing Medley repos or archives on Linux we often come across long series of TEdit files we'd like to examine. As an option in addition to opening the files with TEdit on Medley, it would be useful to have a Linux script for viewing a TEdit file passed as an argument.

The script would launch a minimal Medley session and open the argument file from TEdit in read-only mode. Closing TEdit's window or executing the exit command would terminate the Medley session and return to the shell.

Similarly to the loadup scripts, the script would start Medley and feed it a properly constructed init file that calls TEdit and passes the argument file. It could be named tedit-see, tedit-view, or just tedit and reside in the scripts directory of the Medley repo.

@masinter is this the script for generating the HC files?
