Feature Request - Allow Multiple Instances to Launch Together

[joshmc82]

It would be a great enhancement to be able to select multiple instances and launch them together.

Do you think it would be better as a text field where you specify a number of how many instances of that connection to launch, or would a checkbox for "launch two instances" be sufficient for a single connection? I don't think I've ever tried to juggle more than 2 clients connected to the same server before.

For my specific use case, I sometimes want to launch 2 different instances, not 2 of the same. But that would be an interesting feature too for cases when I want to launch multiple of the same one.

It is simple to add support for launching 2 (or more) of the same instance but to support the former case requires substantial changes to be made to the way a command is launched and receiving the status of each command for displaying feedback on the frontend.
