Projects and files
A paper is usually more than one file. Texpile treats the folder as the project, with no separate project file to keep in sync.

File explorer
Every file in the folder, with multi-select using Ctrl and Shift and drag and drop within the tree.
- Drag files and folders in from your system's file manager to import them.
- Ctrl+V pastes: a screenshot on your clipboard becomes a new image file, and copied files are copied in.
- Drag and drop within the tree to move files between folders.
Tabs
Open files appear as tabs above the editor, and your open tabs come back when you reopen the folder.
Multi-file documents
Fragments pulled in with \input parse using the main file's macros and packages, so a chapter file is understood the way the main file would understand it rather than as an orphan.
Table of contents
A contents panel lists your headings, figures, tables, and beamer frames. Click an entry to jump to it.
Word count
Words and characters for the whole document, or for the current selection.
Getting around
The command palette opens files and runs editor actions without leaving the keyboard. You can also work in several windows at once, and relaunching reopens each on its last open file.
