Linelark Notepad Studio
What shipped in 1.5.0.
The sidebar can manage files, not only open them
- Folder and Open Files context menus can copy an absolute or workspace-relative path, cut or copy an item, paste into a folder, rename it, or move it to the Trash.
- Workspace roots stay protected from rename, cut, and deletion, and a copied item receives an available “copy” name instead of replacing an existing file.
Open work follows a move
- Rename or move a file from the sidebar and its open buffer stays attached to the new path, with its unsaved state and undo history intact.
- Moved folders carry every affected open tab, search result, bookmark, and recent-file path with them rather than leaving stale references behind.
Deletion says exactly what will be lost
- Deleting from the sidebar uses the macOS Trash instead of permanently removing the item.
- The confirmation identifies affected open tabs and warns explicitly when any of them contain unsaved changes before it closes them.
A terminal can belong to a project
- Start a terminal for the active file or for a workspace folder, switch between running shells from the panel, and pin a file terminal so closing its tab does not end the process.
- Project terminals outlive tabs by definition. Hiding the panel no longer closes a shell, and the terminal can temporarily fill the window without rebuilding the editor underneath it.
Known limits
- Sidebar file operations apply to local files and folders. Workspace roots themselves cannot be renamed, moved, or deleted from Linelark.
- A delete closes affected open tabs after confirmation; unsaved text in those tabs is not written to the file being moved to the Trash.
- Code folding and recorded macros remain roadmap items with no promised date.
