"Open Recent" file list is not preserved between two tilde sessions #44

Closed tjaacks closed 5 years ago

tjaacks commented 5 years ago

I am running tilde 1.0.1 on a Ubuntu 16.04 machine, which I am accessing via SSH using KiTTY from Windows.

When I open and close a file in tilde, I can re-open it easily using "Open Recent" from the "File" menu. When I restart tilde, the file list there is empty. Is this intended or a bug?

I would love to have the recent file list saved, so that I can return to my last file after restarting tilde.

It was intended when I first implemented this. However, I agree that it would be better to save the list, although that is not quite as simple as it may sound as there may be multiple instances of tilde running simultaneously. I'll keep this bug open as a feature request.

Thanks for your quick reply. I see the problem, however, how do you deal with the config file in case of multiple instances? Doesn't the same problem appear there as well?

gphalkes commented 5 years ago

This is now implemented, and will be part of the next Tilde release.

tjaacks commented 5 years ago

Great, thank you very much!

tjaacks commented 5 years ago

Hmm, this obviously did not go into the 1.0.2. release. When is the next release planned?

gphalkes commented 5 years ago

You are absolutely right. I found a bug in Tilde that warranted a separate quick release. The feature will be in the next release, which I will do in the next week or two. It mostly depends on what other things I have time to implement in the near future. Given the time investment of a new release, I prefer to bundle multiple changes into a new release.

tjaacks commented 5 years ago

That sounds reasonable. Thanks for your work and the quick reply. :-)

This is now released as part of version 1.1.0
