dualedit

DualEdit is a text editor designed for developers that offers a split-pane interface. This feature allows users to view and edit two files simultaneously, or to view different parts of the same file, side-by-side. The primary purpose of this layout is to facilitate comparisons between code, make it easier to copy and paste between files, or to keep a reference file open while working on another.

The editor typically includes standard text editing functionalities such as syntax highlighting for various programming languages, find and replace, undo/redo capabilities, and line number display. DualEdit aims to streamline common development workflows by providing a more efficient way to manage and interact with multiple code sections or files. It is often favored by those who frequently need to cross-reference or merge code.

While specific features can vary between implementations or forks of DualEdit, the core concept remains consistent: providing a dual-pane environment for enhanced code editing. The goal is to reduce the need for constant window switching and to improve overall productivity for software development tasks.
