[SOLVED] return text from geany or other editor to IDE after saving and closing the editor

mtdew3q · 05-14-2013, 10:59 PM

Hi

Tonight for longer than I'd like to admit, I tried getting different editors to return their text back to a procedure in my ide. The ide yields control with a button called edit, but when I save the file and quit to return to the editor, nothing appears in the proc window. The manual for TKProE said notepad works in windows, but I am using linux.

I am using TKProE IDE and have tried several editors.

Does anyone know of a trick that might help?

thanks!

HI-

Now there is a solution. Dennis the creator of TKProE said he uses kwrite like this: kwrite {FILENAME} I think the filename needs to be enclosed in braces at least that is how I interpret, and the filename represents what you save it under.

I am about to try it out, but I am sure it will work.

thanks

Hi -

type this as litteral:

kwrite {FILENAME}

that works. Thanks to Dennis of TKProE.
