i think we are using "tab" to mean different things.

I mean tab as used by MSword, IE etc, so if I want to work on 3 books in sigil I would have 3 top level tabs - below that there would be the chapters, toc , stylesheets etc for each book within each of the 3 tabs, but I'd have only one instance of Sigil running , not 3.

is there some technical reason why sigil.exe takes 5 - 25 secs to launch yet bloatware like MSword will launch instantly.
I suppose I could try placing sigil & its components onto a create-at-startup RAM disc but that would be very geeky & I am not sure how to go about it in Windows 7

what would suit be it to have sigil re-use itself so if i double click a book in calibre it loads into the already running instance of sigil ( assuming there is one in memory), rather than spends time launching a brand new process. I Know I can go to sigil file open but then it takes even more seconds to manually navigate thru calibre,s black-book database to the epub that I want to edit.
