I asked over and over again on forums for a shutdown and start up script from iRex that would make a note of what documents were open, seeing as the existing software kept track of where you were in the document, and have that reopen all the documents again upon boot up. An easy thing that would have saved so much frustration while they sorted out their battery woes.

Hi omro,
At this moment I am experimenting with a modified ctb (the app that allows you to browse on your SD-card and start documents) to store the (last) started documents in a 'recently read list'. This modified ctb does not start at the 'Desktop' folder, but in the folder with the recent files. It is still very experimental, I have only used the emulator so far. Maybe an initial version is working when your DR is back/replaced and you can be my 'test-crash-dummy'
for trying it.
The problem with this kinds of hacks is ofcourse that it can only be used with one version of the firmware and since it is replacing a part of it should only be used by the 'very brave
'...
(I think we are slowly getting off-topic w.r.t. the first post ...)
