I'm trying to write a script that creates SciTE session files (.ses). These files appear to be simple text files, that look like this in a text editor:

Quote:

<pos=1> x:\hotkeys\main.ahk
<pos=1> x:\hotkeys\editors.ahk
<pos=1> x:\hotkeys\global.ahk

I found SciTE wouldn't open the AHk-created .ses file, so I compared SciTE-created .ses file to one made with AHk in a hex editor and the only difference is that AHk writes 0D0A for the linefeed character (`n) whereas SciTE only writes 0A.

I tried using the Transform function to return the character number of this 0A, and it returns 10, which is the linefeed character. This is strange because writing Chr(10) to another file actually writes 0D0A. Is there a way I can only write 0A?

Code:

; read the char
fileread, this, char.ses ; 0A
msgbox, % Asc(this) ; 10

; write the char
fileappend, % Chr(10), test ; 0D0A

This isn't an answer to your question.. but may be a possible workaround; Could you possibly make a session file like this..

Code:

<pos=1> %TEMP%\main.ahk
<pos=1> %TEMP%\editors.ahk
<pos=1> %TEMP%\global.ahk

...and then on launch have ahk do a 'FileInstall, main.ahk, %TEMP%\main.ahk, 1' type thing. This way it wouldn't be necessary to have ahk edit or create your .ses file.. but would make sure the paths lines up.

Strange, I didn't knew it was sensible to line ending. I would file this as a bug of SciTE (but this session thingy isn't much maintened and should change to a .properties like format).

AHK's Manual wrote:

To append in binary mode rather than text mode, prepend an asterisk to the filename. This causes each linefeed character (`n) to be written as as a single linefeed (LF) rather than the Windows standard of CR+LF. For example: *C:\My Unix File.txt

should help you...

Thanks Philippe, that fixed it. :)

I just made recently something that allows to open all files listed in a session file, this is a good place to share:
OpenSciTESession

Code:

; Run SciTE with the loadsession option, with path correctly escaped
StringReplace sessionPath, 1, \, \\, All
Run %SciTE_Home%\SciTE.exe "-loadsession:%sessionPath%"

Of course, SciTE_Home must be correctly set, otherwise, just use the regular path.
Then, put the following in the registry:

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

; SciTE specific: open a session.
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.ses]
@="SciTESessionFile"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SciTESessionFile]
; English
@="SciTE Session File"
; French
@="Session SciTE"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SciTESessionFile\DefaultIcon]
@="C:\\Program Files\\UText\\SciTE\\SciTE.exe"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SciTESessionFile\shell\open\command]
; The following doesn't work because backslashes in path must be escaped
#~ @="\"C:\\Program Files\\UText\\SciTE\\SciTE.exe\" \"-loadsession:%1\""
@="\"C:\Program Files\USys\AutoHotkey\AutoHotkey.exe\" "C:\\Program Files\\UText\\SciTE\\OpenSciTESession.ahk\" \"%1\""

As usual, the paths must be adjusted to yours.
