Better network share support
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Handling network files via UNC path isn't implemented very nice. We are in a corporate environment, where we are accessing files on different network shares pretty often. Accessing a share adds an entry \server\share to the tree view. All but the last one of the network share entries are removed, when Notepad++ is restarted. But I seem to have no chance to remove this entry afterwards in the GUI. And I'm not sure, if it should be permanent at all...
Describe the solution you'd like
- First, it would be nice if all network share entries would be temporary for a session in general
- Since, there are some shares, I access on a regular basis, it would be nice to have a "Pin this server"/"Unpin this server" entry in the context menu to keep the current "last entry behavior" for some selected servers; so that they are treated like local disks
- Third, it would be nice if shares would be grouped by server e.g. instead of adding \\server\a \\server\b \\anotherserver\c It would be nice to show them \\server ---->a ---->b \\anotherserver ---->c
