List of open workfiles?

Postby paues » Fri Sep 26, 2025 2:14 am

Is there a command or function to get a list of open workfiles? Something akin to @pagelist but for workfiles? If not, @wflist would be a useful addition :idea:

There isn't.

And it is a little cumbersome - you can have the same workfile open multiple times. You can have different workfiles, with the same name, open at the same time.

And, if I do have one file open multiple times, there is no way to open any one instance using wfselect…?

I mean in a situation where I have opened C:\myworkfile.wf1 twice and have changed the second instance somehow. Is there any way for me to choose what instance of myworkfile.wf1 to activate?
