SessMgr: Sort your sessions by date

[Bret Sutton]

I like to sort my sessions by date, since I'm usually interested in the most recently used sessions (and I tend to let them collect). So I added a sort-by-date to the Session Manager.

The attached version of SessMgr.s includes David Deley's string-length changes. See this thread for more information:

I prefer to name my versions of macro files the same as the original. The first thing I do when I install a new version of ME is to create a subdirectory of SRC, called ORIG, and copy all the factory-issue source to that directory. Then I can modify the versions in SRC with impunity, and the standard 'Recompile Macro Source' and 'Rebuild Macro Library' shortcuts will include my versions. If you download and compile this file, please first save your original SessMgr.s to another directory!

Thanks Brett. It's nice. I made one change to line 1362, added +21 to the /HSCROLL width to widen it to account for the date field.

Code: Select all

'/DELWCMD=' + str(sm_delete_ctrl) + '/HSCROLL=' + str(maxlength + 21 + 45)); //DWD

(Though my attachment is "SessMgrBRET2.s" it will still compile to "SessMgr.mac" because of the "macro_file SessMgr" at the beginning of the file. I'll mention this is for Multi-Edit 10.02 (ME2006))

Thanks for another great enhancement to ME! Works very well.
