Posted this on another thread but guess it got missed.

I was wanting to do one of 2 things; either 'customize' the existing activity toolbar to be able to have one or more of the buttons link to notepad window(s) that open within MC instead of only linking to world windows. OR create a 2nd separate 'activity' bar with browsable link buttons for notepad windows that will open within mushclient. This 2nd option may be easier than messing with existing code and maybe installed as a vbs plugin?

What would be ideal is having worlds linked to activity bar buttons as they are now, but have right click enabled on unused activity bar buttons so I could browse and link them to notepad windows that exist on my C drive, which would open up within muchclient.

Also what I'd like to do currently is open existing notepad windows but open them within mushclient rather than outside MC.. I'm trying to spot somewhere on the menu to do that other than the current option to only open new ones.. can't seem to find it. Am I not seeing something there or is it currently not possible? currently using vers 3.26 if that helps..

cheers if anyone can help here

Customisable buttons are down for future enhancements, but I think right now you could make a script that did a world.Open to open a notepad window. You could then tie that to a short alias, and then a macro key, so if you need to quickly edit a file, just hit F9 or whatever.

that worked really well, thanks. :)

for some reason I didn't think world.Open("C:\file.txt") would open it the way I wanted, but it does :) cheers!
