Revision history [back]

In my workflow I open Resultsviewer a lot, and look at the EnergyPlus .err file.

Since this debugging is quite time-consuming, I'm trying to optimize my workflow using AutoHotKey (http://www.autohotkey.com/)

I wrote a script that does the following, for the most recently run .osm-file:

• Ctrl+R: Opens Resultsviewer (and goes to tree view + collapses the tree)
• Ctrl+E: Opens the .err in Notepad++
• Ctrl+D: Opens the folder in explorer

I didn't do any thorough testing, so it may need modifications on your system. Feel free to use/modify.
