I'd like my notepad to open a file
Is that "a" file (meaning a specific one) or "any" file (meaning you want
the behaviors to be exhibit on any file you open with Notepad)?
with the following
characteristics(automatically upon launch):
1. The window is maximized and occupies the whole screen.
For "a" file, create a shortcut that runs notepad.exe and specifies the file
as a parameter. If there are spaces in the path to the notepad.exe file,
enclose the command within double-quotes. Same for the parameter if there
are spaces in its path (even if there aren't spaces, adding the
double-quotes won't hurt). Then edit the properties of the shortcut to open
a maximized window.
2. The view would roll to the end of the file
That would require sending the Ctrl+End keystroke combination to the program
after it loaded. You will need some background utility that sends
keystrokes to programs when they load, like AutoHotkey or AutoIt.
