Suggestion: Add a session manager

Post by dfhtextpipe »

Some users may be working on more than one project, each requiring several different TextPipe filters.

Other computer programs, notably a few text editors, have as a feature what might be termed a "session manager".
This enables a session to be loaded from or saved to a program session file.

It should not be too difficult to implement something similar for TextPipe (& the other DataMystic programs).

Which elements would be retained?

The only ones that spring to mind are:

1. Trial run output
2. Current cursor position in the tree view.

Those two questions appertain to each individual TextPipe filter file,
so what's the relevance for designing a session manager that groups together several separate TextPipe filter files as a project workspace?

Two of my favourite text editors have session managers.
