I've got a cvs GUI tool I'm trying out that lets me select the editor I
want to use when viewing/editing files. I'd like to know if its possible
to have SNav running and have my GUI tool use the SNav editor in this
capacity. If so, how do I invoke it? I'd be dealing with files that are
already in my SNav project that I have open.
thanx & later,
Ben Scherrey
PS: Also, is there any way to have text searching disable
case-insensitive search by default? I find that most annoying.
PPS: I'm running under RedHat 6.2 Linux.

Well, that is a first. Usually folks want to use some other editor
in SN. I don't see how you would use SN to edit files for another
application, perhaps you could hack in a feature that would
take a file name as a cmd line arg and open the project with
that file open in the editor.

I think if you change the setting in the find dialog it
will change the way the fast find box works. That is
not a documented feature, but I think it happens to
work on 4.5.

you can actually open the SN editor without a project,
as DeJong described here, you have to write a script
that creates a SN window and opens the file, if you
look into multiapp.tcl, you will figure it out
quickly.

well well well...
I am also interested in the purpose of opening files from "outside". You all
know gnuclient? Why can't sn act as a server too ? That would be pretty
useful. From a python/perl/bash/etc. script, it would allow to edit files
INTO an already opened sn project.
