'geographically separate' could range from in the same room to a

True! As long as the tech works...
My experience has always been two sharing one PC, ie taking-it-in-turns
to think or to type. Do you do it differently?

Intended to show the survey so-far (has he done his own 'homework'?), to
save us from 'red herrings' but also to see if other approaches might
exist. (such as your next thought...)
IDLE is Python-friendly, free, and FOSS. I wonder how hard it would be
to pair programming connectivity as an extension. A couple of questions:
1. Do the systems you have considered operate as an editor + satellite
terminal or as synchronized peer editors.
Always the former, the local devices are merely 'repeaters' (through a
web browser) of what is happening on the server. This at both edit and
run/test stages.
2. Do two systems connect directly peer-to-peer or through a server?
Exclusively the latter (thus far in the investigation).
