To open a project, choose the menu item ->. Select the project file (*.anjuta) in the dialog and click .
If the project has recently been opened, then you will find it listed in the menu ->. Choose the project file from the list, and the project will be opened.
As soon as a project is opened, Anjuta will enter Project mode. There are three panes in the project window. The first is the project pane and lists the project files organized in file types. The second is the symbol browser, which has already been discussed in section Symbol Browser and tags Brwoser. The third pane is the file view of the project and is more or less similar to a mini file-manager. In file view, all the files present in the project tree is visible. Right clicking on these files will pop up the file operation submenu.
If the project is also a CVS tree, then corresponing file revision numbers are also listing on the right of file names in the file view pane.
The project is automatically saved when you close because all changes are made directly in the project structure.
