Feature Request: Save untitled, open scripts when exiting GUI
SublimeText has this nifty feature, that it saves all open tabs, even if the have no representation on the filesystem, so one can continue exactly, where one has left off.
I find myself often to have several, unnamed, XQueries open, to test this concept, to compose that function, etc. It would be nice, if one could simply shut off and have them reopened next time without naming a file and saving each item in question.
Hi Andreas,
I’ve created a GitHub issue for your request [1].
Best, Christian

Thank you.
On the issue tracker, it was advised, to first post such things to the mailing-list. Did I do it right, or should I have opened the issue myself, since it is a smaller request? And if so, should I have contributed the issue to the mailing-list then?
I ask, because I think, that you got a lot of things to do, and opening a smaller issue may cost you, unnecessarily spent, time.
Hi Andreas,
Thanks for asking.
It’s just fine if you first post your suggestions to the mailing list. At the moment, we still prefer to create issues by our own, because it happened too frequently in the past that users were opening duplicate issues, misused the issue tracker to ask questions, or requested fixes for things that were actually correct.
If you stumble upon obvious bugs in BaseX, and if you have input that allows us to reproduce the problem (and that can ideally serve as input for JUnit test cases), you are welcome to report this via GitHub.
Cheers, Christian

Ok, noted.
Hi Andreas,
A 21-month delivery time may be subject to improvement, but you may be glad to hear that unnamed GUI editor files will now be remembered and opened again after a restart [1,2].
Have fun, Christian

LOL, I already thought, this would never happen! A 21 month delivery time can not be criticized when using free software. It's done, when it's done, right? ;-)
Thanks a lot, much appreciated!
