I've used a few editors which have the divided view and not found it as useful as I might have hoped. Perhaps it's something to do with the style of my code (usually very localized, structured and modularized so I rarely need to see two parts of the same file at the same time). A lot of CFS users talk about the snippet shortcuts and they do sound quite useful but, again, most of the things that folks say they use them for are just not scenarios that I find myself needing - or not needing often enough to want a quicker way of doing things. And I'm a fast typist, which helps ;) The file path issue is an interesting one and I do sometimes have a bunch of files open and then wonder which is which because the part of the file path DW shows is not unique. > Even so much as that I'm currently working on an app to leverage Design > Notes (.mno) and .bak/.lck files to do some neat things for poor man's > source control with CFMX... Yes, the .LCK file system is useful - our build system creates .LCK files when running builds to areas where folks use DW. This ensures that files created automatically by the build system show up as checked out to the build system itself - a very visual reminder that those files should only be modified through the version control system.
