"Reload Scripts" command

[Phildo]

justification:

• have a not-100%-stable script (ie, Vim.py)
• be using the script successfully while working on some other project (the purpose of text editors is not to merely improve the text editor )
• a bug is triggered!
• now I'm stuck in a wonky vim mode, and can't get out of it
• I ultimately would like to fix the script, but my first priority is to get back to the train of thought I was trying to get done when the bug happened
• my only two options atm are:
• • close the editor and reopen it to force-reload Vim.py [kills flow]
• • navigate to Vim.py and save it to force-reload Vim.py [kills flow]
• • (a third option:) hit "Control blah" to just force-reload all scripts [back in control!]
• then finish my train of thought on the project I was working on
• THEN go to Vim.py to fix the root of the problem

As a work around, I made a script that adds a Restart command that saves all your changes and restarts the editor. Might need to adjust the paths here but this was what I used:

import N10X
from os import path
from subprocess import Popen

def Restart():
    N10X.Editor.SaveAll()
    p = Popen(path.expandvars(r"%APPDATA%\10x\PythonScripts\restart.bat"))

Optionally, if you want the auto-reload for Vim.py editing, add:

def PostFileSave(filename):
    if path.normpath(filename) == path.expandvars(r"%APPDATA%\10x\PythonScripts\Vim.py"):
        Restart()

N10X.Editor.AddPostFileSaveFunction(PostFileSave)

Then add a batch file named restart.bat in your scripts folder

@taskkill /im 10x.exe
start "" "C:\Program Files\PureDevSoftware\10x\10x.exe"
