Hide Notepad but keeping it activated for text input

[Kevin]

getwintext and setwintext will work while notepad is hidden i've used this before and had good results

basic example

Code:

Copy      Help

int w=win("" "Notepad")
int c=id(15 w) ;;editable text 'Text Editor'
1
hid w;; hide notepad window
str s.getwintext(c);; get existing text
if s.len
,_s.from(s  "[]" "line1[]line2[]line3[]line4");;add new text to existing text
,_s.setwintext(c);; add text to notepad
else
,_s="line1[]line2[]line3[]line4"
,_s.setwintext(c)
1
hid- w;; unhide notepad window

I am not sure what exactly your trying to do. Was just offering this as an alternative to pasting.Works even if window is inactive or hidden. If you give us a better idea of what exactly your trying to do maybe can come up with a solution.
