System 5.0rc3 XFCE
I have a question about how the remembering of recent files in mousepad is handled.
I want it to remember two files that I always need to be loaded.
The issue, probably because of an older getting time stamp when these file got added to /home/guest/.local/share/recently-used.xbel, when I open one of them via File / Open Recent / [select file from list] then the 2nd file from that list disappears.
When I open another file as first file instead, both files from the [Open Recent list] disappear.
I know I could e.g. code an autostart event where mousepad is started at startup from XFCE with the two files I want it to recall.
But I am stubborn and want to know if there is a system tweak that gets mousepad (or the system?) to keep the [Open Recent list] even when the file entries have a quite old time stamp when they have been put there.
Another option would be creating a script that updates the time stamp.
As example, this is one entry of the two files in /home/guest/.local/share/recently-used.xbel
Code: Select all
<bookmark href="file:///mnt/sda99/what/ever.txt" added="2021-11-01T10:07:52.691529Z" modified="2021-11-01T10:07:52
.696758Z" visited="2021-11-01T10:07:52.691537Z">
But I prefer neither the autostart nor the auto-editing the visited= parameter of the recently-used.xbel approach.
I would prefer if mousepad (or the system?) will no longer delete my recently-used.xbel entries only because they got older.
But I have no idea if such approach is possible, e.g. if there is some kind of system tweak (maybe to be put into a config file and not to be found via the GUI?)
