[passivate]

That's what I've been doing with Notepad++ for years and years. It doesn't even prompt you to save when you exit, it just restores your previous open file panes, including ones you didn't save.

(not sure if I had to change a setting for this)

[notRobot → passivate]

You don't have to change a setting, that's the default behaviour :D

[haddr → passivate]

same here! i was going up to hundreds of new files for my notes. very comfortable!
