AkelPad

How I can define file tipe extesions to Save / Save As... options?

I want add something like:

C++ source file (*.c, *.h)
JavaScript file (*.js)

etc

I don't know if this will work or if there is a better method, but you could try editing the string table in AkelPad.exe using a resource editor like Resource Hacker. There is an entry that corresponds to the current file filters that could possibly be edited to add your desired file type filters.
Change:
"Text files (*.txt)|*.txt|All files (*.*)|*.*"
to something like:
"Text files (*.txt)|*.txt|C++ source file (*.c, *.h)|*.c;*.h|JavaScript file (*.js)|*.js|All files (*.*)|*.*"

haha! nice, thanks btriffles, it works.
Although I think it would be some way to make this without modify AkelPad exe. But is a fun and effective solution hehe.

Yes, it would be nice if things like keyboard shortcuts and file filters could be modified inside the program (or at least from the registry or configuration file).

I had to modify the .exe to set the shortcut key for redo to CTRL+Y since AkelPad violates Microsoft's guidelines for keyboard UI design, which should be used for all Windows applications.

You can use Hotkeys plugin instead.

Nothing to setup the files extension menu from open/save dialogs?
By now just modifying the exe?

Thanks, I didn't know that the Hotkeys plugin could override existing hotkeys.
Still it would be nice if AkelPad could use CTRL+Y for redo by default. It is very surprising when a standard Windows shortcut key is replaced by a destructive action! I'm also trying to minimize my plugin usage.

Regardless, thanks for your help and the great software.
