I really like XNEdit. You've done a great job!!

Two features that would be very nice to have would be to be able to save and restore a "session" (with "session" meaning the set of currently open files), so that if you are working on several source files, you can quit NEdit and open the same files again in one click the next time you start NEdit.

Another feature that would be very nice, is to be able to select several files with the file dialog, so that you open all selected files.

A session restore feature is already on my todo list and I started working on it a while ago. I can prioritize this a bit more.

I use Mate as Desktop manager on Linux, it has a feature to save all the app+docs that are opened while user quit the session. So when reboot you will find all the app you have before with the document inside opened. So a reboot i very like a suspension. This do not work for XNEdit only, would be very nice to have working for me too.
