This wouldn’t really work for completely simultaneous editing, but I’ve known colleagues who took a similar approach when collaborating on LaTeX documents and they didn’t have too many problems. > Cheers, > Kieren. > ________________________________ > > Kieren MacMillan, composer (he/him/his) > ‣ website: www.kierenmacmillan.info > ‣ email: kie...@kierenmacmillan.info
