Description clever 2005-10-10 17:52:45 UTC

[ BUILD # : 200510050715 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.4.2_xx ]

In the event that multiple files with the same name (such as web.xml) are open, append the filename in the tab with the project name, or abbreviated project name. So that instead of:
  _________  _________
_/ web.xml \/ web.xml \___

It would appear like:
  _____________________  ____________________
_/ web.xml (Project 2) \/ web.xml (Project 2)\__

This would be a toggle-able option of course.

Yes, we need to enhance the Editor to handle the scenario of having same file
name across different project.

Also, How does the editor handle same file names wihin the same project.
(Currently, I am using "select in"-> "Files" to differentiate files in same project.


Thanks,
