Tool-Additions

Post by HeX0R »

I would like to have a few enhancements with IDE-Tools:

1.)
When i have a parameter of %TEMPFILE and ticked the option to reload after tool has finished, i also want to have the possibility to NOT reload the file (maybe i didn't change anything, then it would be better to not confuse the user with a reloaded or newly loaded source).
Easiest would be, if my tool deletes the temporarily created File, the Editor shouldn't reload an empty sheet.
A better alternative would be to add a line to the end of the file, so this also would work with %FILE as parameter (otherwise the tool would delete this file, i don't think users would love this).

2.)
The PB_TOOL_FileList-EnvironmentVariable is not bad, but what if my tool runs all the time in the background and it wants to know periodically the actually opened files ?
Is some kind of "Online-Information-Exchange-System" possible ?
