Like if you go File > New > File... and then select "CPP File", it
doesn't add it to the current project. (And opens the file browser in a
random spot.) You must instead right-click on the "Source Files" node of

*then* it automatically puts the file in the correct place, adds it to
the project, and lets you compile and run it. Sheesh!
