Re: Save project as... option
Now I need to do that in the Windows Explorer.
More analogous to how it is done in Visual Studio or Delphi where you also can change the name of the project file.
Re: Save project as... option
I had a single-file project where the main file contained everything, and I wanted to create a new project with the same setup, under a new name of course. I picture it as a copy and rename, so that:
~/originalproject/main.tex
gets copied to become
~/newproject/main.tex
for example.
Everything in main.tex is still there, but all internal references are changed.
It could also be good for a multi-file project, where for example you have chapters written in separate .tex files.
It would save a fair amount of Windows Explorer fussing.
