Description

Hey guys.

Just a feature request, I wish it would be possible to make Mouspead open unnamed (and unsaved) documents from a previous session.

For example, as a case scenario, I open Mousepad, type something and close Mousepad. Or for some reason the system powers off. Mousepad won't ask me to save the newly created document(s). When I open Mousepad again they're restored as they were in the previous session. When I do have the opportunity, then I save the files with the name and locations I want it to be. I know it is trivial, but in certain cases, it is a lifesaver.

Real-life example, I was traveling with my laptop, I knew I was running low on the battery, but still I opened Mousepad to write down some phone numbers. The laptop died on me. I didn't save the file. No phone numbers at the end. It sucks. It could happen to anyone. But that's the truth, otherwise, I wouldn't write this bug. And I know, sometimes it's better to have a paper and a pen on you

Cheers, Denis

PS: btw, thank you for all your work. Still, Mousepad is my favorite editor
