The Efficient Coder - WinSpit Revolution
There has got to be a better way of communicating with our computers!

Got a great tip from listening to the pod cast at http://www.stackoverflow.com/ (if you don't subscribe you should!).  Jeff Atwood in passing mentioned a program I've been looking for, for a long time.  It's called WinSplit Revolution.  I'm big time into multiple monitors, here's a picture of my previous setup, my current one is similar, but have a 24" as my main monitor, then two 21" on each side and finally a 900x1440 off to the left.

  • My center monitor is used for editing source code editing, my primary source of revenue. 
  • Left 21" monitor has all the extra VS.NET windows such as solution explorer, output, error windows etc...
  • Right 21" monitor has the output of the project I'm working, usually have IE and Firefox open.
  • I recently added back in the far left monitor, a 900x1440 in portrait mode.  On this monitor, I've got my email and Debug View.

Anyway back to the WinSplit Revolution, this program uses a CTRL-ALT-NUMPAD KEY to position the current quadrants on the screen.

Check this one out, you won't be sorry!
