title: Can you have 2 completely independent instances of Eclipse running at the same time?
body: <p>I am currently using Eclipse for both Java and Python (with PyDev). I often find that I have one Java project open with lots of files, and then for some reason I have to switch to a Python project for a bit.</p>
  
  <p>I want to leave my Java project the way it is, and I don't just want to open tons of Python files in the same place because then I have too much open at once.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way I can leave my Java project exactly the way it is, and open a completely new session of Eclipse? (sort of the way you can do with a browser)</p>
