"A collaborative real-time editor is a kind of text editor that allows simultaneous editing of the same text by different participants using different computers."

Fun to use editors, if you don't want to write your code/notes/documents alone :)



I have tried 2 of them so far:

Gobby - completely free, can be hard to install

MoonEdit - free for non-commercial use, very small and easy to install



Have fun, Fanda

I was also thinking that it could be a good way how to share our functions. MoonEdit can run as a server that allows sharing multiple files and anybody can edit them in the real-time. Connection to the server and to any file can be protected by the password.
