| - | To allow WinSCP use this kind of editors, you need to select //Multiple files// mode and enable preference option //[[ui_pref_editor|External editor opens multiple files in one window (process)]]//. Then WinSCP will not treat the file as closed when the editor launched to open it is closed. Drawback is that all the files ever edited by current instance of WinSCP will be kept in [[temp_folder|temporary directory]] (until WinSCP is closed) and WinSCP will need to watch for changes of them all. | + | To allow WinSCP use this kind of editors, you need to select //Multiple files// mode and enable preference option //[[ui_pref_editor#default_editor|External editor opens multiple files in one window (process)]]//.
