File Management

Standard options for handling GPC and GPJ files.



File Types:

.GPC is the scripting language for all Cronus devices. .GPJ is a project file that includes a collection of GPC scripts.

New

To create a new file, select File 👉 New and a sub-menu will open offering a number of options including templates of sample scripts to illustrate some basic structures of the GPC programming language.

Empty File

As the name implies, this option creates a blank file that opens as a new TAB in the Compiler window.



GPC Script

Create a blank GPC Script by generating the main function which opens as a new TAB in the Compiler window.



Remap Sample

Create a sample Remap GPC Script which opens as a new TAB in the Compiler window.



Combo Rapid Fire

Create a sample Combo Rapid Fire GPC Script which opens as a new TAB in the Compiler window.



Open...

To open a GPC Script or GPJ Project file, select File 👉 Open (CTRL + O). An 'Open Script or Project' dialog will appear and you can select one or multiple files to open. Each file will be opened in an individual compiler tab, if a file was already opened, its corresponding compiler tab will auto select.



Add File To Project

All opened GPC scripts can be saved into a single project file (GPJ). A project file is an easy way to recall the currently opened GPC files. To add a gpc file to a project, an existing project must first be open in the compiler (see image below).



Select File 👉 Add File To Project and a 'Add a File To The Current Project' dialog will appear asking you to select a .gpc script file. You can also click on the 'Add File' button.

Save

To save a GPC Script file, select File 👉 Save (CTRL + S). If the script has not been previously saved, a 'Save Script As' dialog will appear asking you to choose a destination and filename. If the file exists, it will be overwritten.

Important: Make sure you select the TAB or click inside the compiler window to focus on the script you wish to save. If the script is not selected, the Save & Compile options will not be available.



Info: To indicate that a GPC file was changed and has not yet been saved, an asterisk(*) will be displayed in its tab, after the filename.



Save As...

To save an existing GPC Script or GPJ Project file to a different file or location, select File 👉 Save As... A 'Save Script As' dialog will appear asking you to choose a destination and filename.

Save All

To save all open GPC Scripts, select File 👉 Save All. A 'Save Script As' dialog will appear asking you to choose a destination and filename for each of the scripts that are open in Compiler.

Save Project

All opened GPC scripts can be saved into a single project file (GPJ). A project file is an easy way to recall the currently opened GPC files.

To save a GPJ Project file, first, make sure all the scripts you wish to include in the project are saved, then select File 👉 Save Project. If the project has not been previously saved, a 'Save Project As' dialog will appear asking you to choose a destination and filename. If the file exists, it will be overwritten.



Save Project As...

To save an existing GPJ Project file to a different file or location, select File 👉 Save Project As... A 'Save Project As' dialog will appear asking you to choose a destination and filename.

Close

To close a GPC Script, highlight the TAB in the Compiler that you wish to close and select File 👉 CLOSE. You can also click on the X in the right corner of the TAB.

If you have any unsaved data in a GPC file, Zen Studio will always ask if you'd like to save those changes before closing any file.



Close All

To close all files in the Compiler, select File 👉 Close All.

Close Project

To close the open project file in the Compiler, select File 👉 Close Project.

Recent Files

Zen Studio keeps a list of the 10 most recently opened files in the File 👉 Recent Files menu, so you can reopen them quickly by simply clicking on the file name.

Relaunch as Admin

Zen Studio requires full Windows Administrator permissions. If a Windows install has a restricted or corrupt profile, it can prevent the software from functioning correctly. A solution to this is to open Zen Studio in Admin Mode, this is easily done by selecting File 👉 Relaunch as Admin

If you have any open TABS in the Compiler, you will get a warning message to close those TABS.



If Zen Studio has started in Admin Mode successfully, you will see [ADMIN] displayed in the Title Bar.



Exit

Close the Zen Studio Software. 😜
