bug(main): Rename failed, attempted creation successful.

[FormalSnake]

So there is a path system, but it uses the C drive, which is not doable on mac. This could be done by getting the system document folder, but idk in rust.

lazy_static! {
    static ref PATH: Mutex<String> = Mutex::new("C:/Users/User/Documents/GitHub/text-editor/Folder".to_string());
}

That's a placeholder, you can assume the string is empty. It will fail to read the document regardless of its initial value.

You did however remind me that I've forgot some few if statements while writing the latest commit; I've now added a check to prevent the reset of the config.json file:

let exists = &dir.join("config.json").exists();

About MacOS support, I'm not sure if the code will compile there since the very first line of code is:

#![cfg_attr(not(debug_assertions), windows_subsystem = "windows")]

I'd be happy to adjust the code to work on Mac if someone will open an issue with the error stack from MacOS

[FormalSnake]

I will do that in a few hours, I am going to watch FNAF lol 🤣

So, using bun run dev it worked!
But there seems to be an issue with saving files.

Could you try replicating the issue, but only using alphabetical characters in the title? Seems like the error occurred when you inserted "!".

It works, but the issue is that the first tab doesn't work, it doesn't save.

That's since it failed once and lost the path forever. To temporarily fix this, you can delete your config.json.

If you take a look at %APPDATA%/Fextify/Data/data/ (may be different on MacOS) you'll see that it's currently being spammed by files.

If you wish, once you empty your config.json, you can follow some debugging steps I've previously provided:

What is that on mac? It is not in Application Support which should be the mac version of %appdata%

I'm unsure, but you can modify src-tauri/src/main.rs at line 46 to be:

println!("{:?}", dir);

Then you can recompile the program on dev (npm run tauri dev), and check the terminal for the path to be printed.

I will reopen this issue until the issue gets resolved.
