New File Create

When called from the command line, either:
a). ask if new file to be created, or
b) don't create a 0 length file, and only create it when saved.

Can cause havoc when I mistype a filename to edit ;)

Zeus already has this feature :)

Using the Options, Editor Options menu just check the File to open must exist option.

Now if you start Zeus at the command line with a non-existent file, a read only, non existent file will be created in Zeus. With the option unchecked a writable, zero length file will be created.

You can also convert the read only file into a writable file by using the File, Read Only menu and then using the File, Save menu ;)
