I've never discovered a limit to the number of files it can load. As a bonus the search term can be a regex. > All in all, though, I find an IDE more helpful than hindering, > and am (usually) glad to have it.

But, as I said, its just another case of horses for courses. -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org |
