This ahk should do it.Sendmode,input
Click,Right
Send,w
Sleep,200
Send,t
Compile it to exe.. maybe NewTextFile.exe.
In RegEdit go to
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell
create a key
New Text File
under that create a key
command
for default value put path to NewTextFile.exe
example C:\Utils\NewTextFile.exe
Since there is no window it should not block the mouse. It's just a macro to right click to open menu, then sends 'w' and then 't' the system does the rest. It's just opening the New submenu.-MilesAhead (February 23, 2014, 11:36 AM)
Ok. After the text file is created do you want to open it in an editor or just double click to open?-MilesAhead (February 23, 2014, 09:00 AM)
Ok. Let me get it straight. You right click an empty space on desktop or folder and the command is in the menu? Or you right click on a file and the command is there? It would seem more logical to do the former if making new files.-MilesAhead (February 23, 2014, 08:49 AM)
Really asinine-Contro (February 23, 2014, 08:27 AM)
Ok. I already had Text File in New menu. Here's what I did to get a template file.
This key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.txt\ShellNew
I added a new string named FileName and for value Template.txt
In the folder C:\Windows\ShellNew I made a file named Template.txt. The contents is:
This is a text file template.
Now if I right click the desktop or in a folder, select New text document, name it, then double click, it has the text from the template.
One thing I notice I can't do it directly under C:\
It has to be in a folder. The permissions situation with W8 seems even worse than W7 now. Every move is hamstrung. I can't even save a file from Editpad directly into C:\Windows\ShellNew. I have to save it somewhere else, then drag it. Really asinine.
Anyway, I hope the template text default was what you were interested in. If not then, Never Mind.-MilesAhead (February 23, 2014, 07:54 AM)

open the VBA editor (SHIFT+F11) and copy to the NORMAL document.
if there's no module associated with NORMAL you can copy the module from the existing file, otherwise just copy and paste the code (then SAVE SAVE SAVE)-Target (February 20, 2014, 08:22 PM)
pretty sure you should copy it into the normal.dotm...-Target (February 20, 2014, 05:56 PM)

EditPad Lite 7 can do the same thing. I used PsPad for html since it has a previewer that simulates IE. That way I don't have to bring up IE just to test. But anyway, PsPad is ok. A bit quirky though. I've used EditPad Lite for plain text for years. The font settings can be annoying when you forget how you got there. I don't know why there's no button to permanently set the font on the toolbar. But other than that it's ok for a freebie.-MilesAhead (February 18, 2014, 09:28 AM)
