You can simultaneously edit up to 99 files at a time in vEdit, It is exceptionally flexible in how the files are displayed. Although each file typically has a corresponding window, a file can also be displayed in two or more windows. This is useful for editing two regions of the file at the same time, or for editing the file in two modes at the same time, e.g. in ASCII and Hexadecimal.
n Windows, you can start up vEdit without any initial files, or you can “drag and drop” one or more files to the vEdit icon to start up vEdit with the files already loaded. Of course, you can also open and close files from inside the editor.
It is easiest to edit additional files using these “hot-keys” in the “Normal” keyboard layout.
