Hello,

I use "MLO Rapid task entry" on my pocket pc to record new tasks
during the day. Every evening or two I try to sort the <Inbox> on
desktop, assign contexts etc.

I have fairly large tree of tasks and large <Inbox> and sorting
requires lots of scrolling.

MS Word has a nice small feature - there is a tiny thing above the
upper arrow on vertical scrollbar - you can drag it (or double-click
it) and split the screen into two parts and get two independent views
of the same document. This makes copying and pasting, say, from page 1
to page 99 easy - no scrolling up and down required:

Example - http://media.wiley.com/assets/4/14/fg0-7645-0839-3_ddd2.jpg

Please implement the same feature in MLO.

Thanks in advance.

Alexandre

I think this is a great idea. Another thing that would also work is
being able to open a second window.

Cheers,
Marcin

+1. But what would be even better would be the ability to open multiple MLO
windows on the same MLO file (as one can do in Word with the File>Window>New
command). As a multi-monitor user, the ability to put two MLO windows
alongside each other (both showing the same MLO file) would be just great.
Both options would be even better and the split window would be a lot better
than nothing!
