You didn't studied the tabs feature in more detail, yet.
You don't need the tabs to access the files, you can
even hide the tabbar completely. You can browse through
the files with Ctrl+PageUp/Down.

Moreover, you can tear off the Windows menu to have something
like vertical tabs. Furthermore, you don't need to open
all the files in the same window, but you can group them
on many windows - notice that this means in the same instance
of nedit, ie, you needn't run nedit several times.

You can also use the shortcuts Ctrl+PageUp/Down across these
windows, then. It is all described in the online help.

Of course, there are always practical limits. That would be
how many files can you reasonably edit at the same time?
If you can do more than 300 files at the same time, I must
say I'm deeply impressed by your performance ;-)

Cheers,
Joerg
