Re: multiples of Scratch

Why do you want to?  Explain the application and perhaps someone could help you.

Re: multiples of Scratch

Well, I teach Scratch to my 8th grade students and sometimes when they are having a difficult time making something work they e-mail it to me so I can take a look at it.  I would like to keep theirs up and open a new scratch to try and do different things or view one I did that was similar and compare it to what they are doing (instead of always reinventing the wheel, I'd like to see what I did with varibles or motion, etc. and what they are doing to know why theirs doesn't work and mine did).

Re: multiples of Scratch

What OS are you using? In Windows I can just open Scratch again and have two different instances running without having multiple installs.

Re: multiples of Scratch

On Mac OS X, I just copied Scratch and Scratch.image to another folder and I could run both versions of scratch by double-clinking on them.
