[SHARE CODE] Create a .py file in a dir, from tools menu
-
Ok, some more trivial code to share. This is for the tools menu. All it does is create a temp file in a directory , if you want with some text inserted in the file, you can also do. Then it opens up the newly created file in the editor (sorry, it replaces the active tab, I looked, but I don't think I can change that). While its a temp file, it does not get deleted (using NamedTemporaryFile with delete = False). I often want to try new things and need a type of scratch pad. This script basically gives you this functionality. It's important to me, because so often I just create a file in the dir I am in and call it test.py or crap.py etc.. I just screw up my project directory with lots of crap files for testing something.
I tried to write this with some care to errors.
Personally, I would love to see a framework you have to write to when publishing scripts for the tools menu. Whilst I can grasp and understand the concepts of these type of frameworks, it's beyond me to write one.
But I think the tools menu is trivialised because of this. Again, I could be wrong as I often am 😁But the gist is at

I know I am going to hate myself in the morning, but I will try repo's again. I am using working copy now also. The hardest thing with the repo's for me is to understand the pulls requests etc... And keep on top of it...
But the repo is
