Well, I’ve just tried it, and yes, it does. Programmer’s Notepad always asks you whether you want to save the current state of your projects when you exit. And if you say “yes”, it reloads everything exactly as it was when you left it. It’s very neat! It also uses tabs, offers you the useful TiddlyWiki options of “Close this tab” or “Close all other tabs”, allows you to tile windows vertically or horizontally (or split them vertically or horizontally too, which is a useful and unusual trick) and is generally a very good find. I’ve been using it busily this morning, as a matter of fact. The other thing that’s enjoyable: it’s gratifying fast. And it’s really easy to create folders and files within a project, even though you’re effectively seeing a “virtual” view - there’s no sense of hesitation or (worse) instability. If you observe the “real” file system while you’re creating files/folders in Programmer’s Notepad, you can see the files/folders being created instantaneously.
And unlike EditPro, it doesn’t cost anything! Apart, of course, from a donation, which I do try and make whenever possible (some developers make it remarkably difficult, mind!).
Cheers,
Bill
