The File Manager really isn't a solution,
its funny its now over a year from my question and I forgot I had asked it, so I was googling to see if slickedit could open a folder again and came across my own question....
Seriously, get a copy of visual studio code...its free, try opening a folder at the top of a dir with lots of levels and cpp files, and see how trivially easy it makes quickly getting stuff done....
Slickedit allows easy opening of tiled windows (I use brief emulation), and really, the tiled windows is the only reason I still use slickedit, since no other editor is able to do it.....
But I need to be able to open folders with lots of levels of files in them, they are on shared drives, and I often am having to keep visual studio code open side by side with slickedit, using it to navigate and find tagged items, then moving to slickedit to actually edit the now found files....
There must be a way for slicked to have a 'Open Folder' option, where that folder would now be like a project and have all files tagged etc....
Thanks!
