Suggeriment: Extension in the File menu! about brackets-html-templates HOT 2 CLOSED

I haven't placed it in the FIle menu simply because it doesn't create a new file, it alters the currently opened file. Therefore, it seemed to make more sense for it to be under Edit.

There has been plans to make the extension actually create a new file and someone even submitted a pull request that implemented that very thing. I was almost ready to accept and merge the changes but it was discovered there was a small issue with how it worked as opposed to how Brackets handled new files. It was agreed not to merge because of that.

The problem is that you aren't supposed to assign a file format to a newly created file on creation, that's done on save. So you don't get the benefits of a known file type until the file is saved. So, in the end, the process to get to a proper file is not that much different than if the extension created the file. It would save about one step in the process.

Although, I imagine I'll do it anyway since that was my original intention. One day when I have time I suppose.

Thanks and glad you like the extension.

Hi, Your extension is fantastic. You're right, I asked you to move the item in the file menu for the edit menu is full of items.
