I know that by holding option while quitting an application, you can make it discard the current windows while it quits, but is there an option to have it open without resume?
I know that personally, the time when I think about whether or not I want to resume something is often when I'm launching the application, not closing it.
For example, I'd like it if I could hold the option key while opening a document to make it so an application launched and opened the document and only that document and no others. Or if I held the option key while launching an application, that application would launch as if it were for the first time.
Suggestions on how to make this kind of thing work?
I'm kind of wondering if it'd be possible to program something like that to make it work... I mean, it'd be a simple matter of having some kind of background app in Mac OS X that detects when you hold down option and when option is pressed to lock the Saved Application States file so that it can't be read from and then as soon as the option key is released to unlock it.
