[Freeware] Text Filter - portable, search-as-you-type text file viewer

<< < (5/8) > >>

musetips, have you considered supporting multiple text files?

If Text Filter could load more than a single file, then it could be utilized more like a search/grep tool. 8)

I considered a tabbed MDI (multiple document interface) scheme at the very beginning. This could add some versatility, but only at the cost of simplicity, one of the most critical objectives.

For now, I might as well keep it as simple as possible. The TODO list is pretty long.



sajman99:
OK, thanks for the info musetips. I can't blame you for keeping the emphasis on the simplicity of this software.

Looking forward to the development of Text Filter. :)

Do you plan any command line options? I tried for example from a command window "TextFilter.exe filename.ext" and it didn't seem to work. If you allow that, people could create shortcuts to TextFilter that opened up a specific file automatically, so you could have shortcuts to multiple files without cluttering up the simple interface.

This is in the TODO list. Also, I plan to allow TF to run in a command line window.
