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.
