Description Missing name CLA 2005-10-30 01:49:21 EST
When there are just two files "Next Editor" action should just go to the other file.

This is useful when you want to do a quick visual compare between two files.
Just by toggling on "Next Editor". This is standard behaviour in most editors we
have used. Last one we used was JBuilder 2005.

Presently it shows a pop-up with two files to select from.

Most editors provide Ctrl+tab to cycle through the files with Shift+Ctrl+Tab to
reverse the cycle.  It is good to have this option also - it is much faster. 

cheers and good will

Have you used "Ctrl+PageUp" and "Ctrl+PageDown"?

ctrl+pg_up cylcles through the files.

we would like to map these to ctrl+tab can you please tell me the "action" this
is mapped to ? I could not find ctrl+pgup mapped to any action in
preferences/keys !!

cheers.
