Is there any way to setup an Eclipse keyboard shortcut which will split the current editor vertically and put the current tab on one side? For example, turning this:
Into:
+1
A:
Not directly with eclipse (3.4 or 3.5)
The closest plugin I have found which might enable what you are looking for is the Split file Editor
Ctrl+6
Usage: Open a file in Eclipse, then select Window -> New Split Editor from the main menu to open a split editor of the file.
(not exactly what you want but:)
Split editor opens in a new tab as opposed to appearing within the existing tab
(so while there may be 2 instances of the same file editor, you still have a situation with one file on one side, and the other files on the other tab group)
