Or quite possibly the other way around. Think about all of the things
that would need to be taken into account to provide all the benefits of
multiple instances in a single instance, all the way down to global
vars, then compare with the one-time hit of a few seconds to make a copy
of the app and put it in your Dock.
And it isn't really extensible. How many duplicates is enough?
Four. :)
At least that's how many I have installed. And I can't say I've ever
used more than three of them at once.
Almost guaranteed it's going to be one more than I currently have created.
Which means I'll have to stop doing whatever I'm doing, close down a
copy of LC, dupe it, and then try to get back to where I was.
You shouldn't need to shut down the current instance. You can make a
copy of the app at any time.
