5.2.3   New Record ‣ Plain Text File

Creates a new plain text (UTF-8) file inside the selected source.

If the File column is visible and editing is enabled, EagleFiler brings the filename into edit mode so that you can set the name of the newly created file. When you’re done, press Tab or click in the viewer to begin entering the contents of the file.

If the File column is hidden or editing is disabled, EagleFiler opens a sheet that lets you enter the name of the new file. If you enter a name containing an extension, EagleFiler uses that; otherwise, it adds .txt as the file extension.

As a shortcut, you can Option-click the New RTF toolbar button to create a new plain text file.
