Open as Text

Opens the file in PSPad. If the file type is known to PSPad then the file will be syntax highlighted appropriately. If the file type is not know then the file will be treated as a text file and opened. This option is only available if you have clicked over a file.
Note: Not all files can be read as text files and whilst PSPad will open them, the contents may not appear as you might expect. You should be aware that you could prevent a program from working or lose valuable data if you change a non-text file and save it.

Open with Default Program

This option will open a file using the program it is associated with in Windows. This option is only available if you have clicked over a file.

Open Folder Files

This option will open in PSPad all of the files in a virtual folder. This option is only available if you click on a virtual folder.

This option will close any files that are in a virtual folder if they are open in PSPad. This option is only available if you click on a virtual folder.

Rename (F2)

This option will allow you to change either the project name or the name of a virtual folder. This option is not available if you have clicked over a file; to rename a file you should use the "Save As..." option and then add the newly created file to the project. See Menu - File.

Remove File from Project (Shift+Ctrl+Del)

This option removes a file from the project. The option is only available if you click on a file.
Note: The file is not deleted, it is only removed from the project.

Set File as Main for Compiler
