Saving location and size of open windows #45

Open Kangmo opened 1 year ago

Kangmo commented 1 year ago

Hi, thanks for the great project. I use turbo at daily work, but I have to open files that I was using each time I reboot my server. Can we make turbo editor to remember all open windows when it exits, so that it can open them again when it runs again?

If so, It can save a huge amount of time. Thank you.

Hi Kangmo, thank you for your interest.

Yes, this would be great. I don't think I'll be able to implement it anytime soon, however.

Hi @Kangmo Turbo doesnt currently support persistent settings.

However you can switch to use far2l file manager that supports persistent settings and opening turbo from its command line.

So basically you can use far2l to make turbo open files from last time.

Would that be a workaround for your workflow?

Hi amay5267,

I will check far2l file manager and see if it works as you described. Thanks for the info!

Hi amay5267,

Tried to run far2l on my macos, and ran it, but could not understand the part "supports persistent settings" and "use far2l to make turbo open files from last time". Can you elaborate more on how to do this? it would be great if there is link containing any example.

Thank you!
