G'day everyone

I'm looking for a freeware program that will allow me to scroll two
windows at the same time (in sync). I couldn't even find one that is
shareware or payware. Any ideas? Should work on MS Windows (2000+ if
possible). The two windows aren't necessarily from the same
application.

Thanks!

Why?? Can not figure out the use.

Something like diff in linux. Useful when comparing two versions of
source codes.

Say you want to compare two documents with each other (two non-editable
PDFs, for example). You'd tile the two windows side by side, and
scroll them one line or one page at the time to compare them. The
comparison can be for translation purposes or for other purposes. In
fact, for translators it can be two plaintext or word processing
documents, in two different languages.

I've written a script that can do this, by the way. I would be
grateful if you could test it on your computer to see if it works. The
script is written in AutoHotKey, and is here:
