Wish List: Edit Recent Objects in Menu

Post by PGilbert »

It would be nice to have in the menu bar a choice where you find the recent Apl objects that were edited, and when selected are reopened for edition. Personnaly I found that usefull and helping me to be more productive.

There is this:

      ]?latest
Command "latest".
Script location: C:\Program Files\Dyalog\Dyalog APL 12.1 Unicode\SALT\Spice\Latest

Lists fns modified today, most-recently-changed first.

Unfortunately I get this:

      ]latest
Command Execution Failed: LIMIT ERROR

because I have cross referenced namespaces but I believe a later patch might have solved it.

That's a good idea Phil. How do we assign ]latest to a single key like 'F2' ?

With:
      (']latest',⊂'ER')⎕pfkey 22
]latest ER
followed by Shift+F10 I get:
      ]latest
Command Execution Failed: WS FULL
Seems to work.
