Two calibre databases
Can I have two completely separate Calibre databases installed at the same time. I tried simply changing the directory in the preferences and it moved all my files over which isn't what I wanted. I don't want to use tags to keep them separate. I would like to either have two concurrent installations of Calibre, or even better, one installation with access to two different sets of books.

I do this to open up a tiny testing library when modifying code - for most situations, tags are more flexible. |
