Starts a "workspace group", a virtual folder to contain one or more projects.
```lua
group("name")
```
### Parameters ###
`name` is the name of the virtual folder, as it should appear in the IDE. Nested groups may be created by separating the names with forward slashes.
### Applies To ###
Workspaces.
### Availability ###
5.0 or later.
### Examples ###
```lua
workspace "MyWorkspace"
-- put the projects "Tests1" and "Tests2" in a virtual folder named "Tests"
group "Tests"
project "Tests1"
-- Tests1 stuff goes here
project "Tests2"
-- Tests2 stuff goes here
-- Any project defined after the call to group() will go into that group. The
-- project can be defined in a different script though.
group "Tests"
include "tests/tests1"
include "tests/tests2"
-- Groups can be nested with forward slashes, like a file path.
group "Tests/Unit"
-- To "close" a group and put projects back at the root level use
-- an empty string for the name.
group ""
project "TestHarness"
```
The group value is latched the first time a project is declared but it can be overriden later:
```lua
local prj = project "Tests1"
prj.group = "NotActuallyATest"
```
or
```lua
project("Tests1").group = "NotActuallyATest"
```
