Feature request: support for many simultaneous editors #356

I really like Calcpad in my civil engineering studies but as we have more and more teamwork assignments, it would be really beneficial to have MS Office/Google Docs style editing as option. It wouldn't have to be "live", I think some git style backend might work. Or just lock the line(s) the user is editing and sync between clients. Also have automatic LOCAL undo/redo available as sometimes things hit the fan the wrong way.

Hi!

Honestly, I do not know how to do this in Calcpad. Probably, what you need is an external editor that already supports this feature. On the other hand, Calcpad supports syntax highlighting and build/run scripts for several editors: Notepad++, Sublime and Cuda. That guy from TRAMETOOLS has also developed support for Nano: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zl_keKBDWfo. I have started a plugin for VS Code but I am still in the middle of it.

I mostly use Calcpad with Notepad++ and Run it with F5 via the Franco Stellari's RunMe plugin: https://github.com/francostellari/NppPlugins/tree/main/RunMe
