The cascading windows is a very nice idea because you could see all of the files that were opened.But if that is too difficult, dividing the screen into two rows of tiled windows (maximum 6 or 8) would be reasonable .Thanks much for your better idea.

(I'm replying to the list this time, just ensuring that it's not missed)Can I ask for clarification:- when an option, -w for example, will be given,- then mc should start with the file's window in windowed (not fullscreen mode),- for multiple files, possibly arranged the windows in e.g.: cascading way,?I think that this would involve first creating a CK_WindowCascade action that would arrange the windows (first exiting fullscreen if needed).On Fri, 15 Jan 2021 at 14:32, Bob Currey via mc <[email protected]> wrote: I looked on the --help screen but didn't see an option to open in window mode$ mcedit --helpUsage: mcedit [OPTION…] [+lineno] file1[:lineno] [file2[:lineno]...]GNU Midnight Commander 4.8.25-154-g33c84e75eHelp Options: -h, --help Show help options --help-all Show all help options --help-terminal Terminal options --help-color Color optionsApplication Options: -V, --version Displays the current version -f, --datadir Print data directory -F, --datadir-info Print extended info about used data directories --configure-options Print configure options -P, --printwd=<file> Print last working directory to specified file -U, --subshell Enables subshell support (default) -u, --nosubshell Disables subshell support -l, --ftplog=<file> Log ftp dialog to specified file -v, --view=<file> Launches the file viewer on a file -e, --edit=<file> ...
