Re: Edit multiple copies of a file

["N. Sivin" nsivin@xxxxxxxx]

As for editing parts of the same file in 2 windows and making sure changes
in both are saved, PC-Write, which a decade ago reached perfection of its
kind, did it neatly. Every time you change from Window 1 to Window 2, the
version of the same file in Window 1 is automatically saved, and vice versa.
If you do it that simply, no error trapping is needed. And dividing the
screen into 2 windows takes only one stroke, as does calling a new file into
either window, something XyWrite has never mastered.
