xcroll scrolls two or three windows with one scrollbar.. xcroll can include preview to make edits easier..

[edit] edit wiki

everyone is used to the current wiki interface:

1. review preview
2. scroll down to see edit window
3. scroll within separate edit window
4. scroll (2.) back up to review preview
5. repeat for each edit
6. click preview, save
7. oi ve!

what if we could simplify 1., 2., 3., 4., 5., 6., 7. with:

1. xcroll down while making fixes
2. preview, save
3.  ?

[edit] edit wixi

xcroll can also manage two input windows, which is useful when editing twext method source texts..

xcroll might then manage the two input windows and a preview window:

[edit] compare two files

how many times do you compare two files side by side? looking for a few minor changes, scrolling over here, over there, here, there, etc etc etc..

diff might do this, but noob can't make it work..

as xcroll learns to better control two windows (files) it may become a very useful tool..

• xcroll by waqas

• split view by nirmalpatel.. include reference article on one side, comments (hacker news, reddit, /. etc) on the other side.. split view in single window
