Re: Looking for a program to restore all open windows after restar
I know very well about batch files. The problem is that the set of files
changes frequently.
Therefore making a batch file manually is a very slow process that doesn't
pay off. Similarly one may create a directory with shortcuts with used files,
but this is also a slow semi-arutomatic way.
The solution should be seamless.
And I have found somthing that is reasonably close.
to use directory opus. It has an option to name and save a list of opened
folders(as tabs). It doesn't open files, but at least allows to keep track of
folders needed for a project.
Ideally it would be nice to annotate files needed for the project and have
this project description to be unharmed by evential shifting and renaming of
the files.
