one keyboard, one pc, 2 different places to type

[noeljansen123]

Hello, i got maybe a weird question..
For my work at home, i use 2 monitors, one pc one keyboard ofcourse and a mouse haha
But on both monitors i have a program open
on the main monitor i type large text,
on my second monitor i have a page where i type exactly the same, i can't copy paste in those programs, so my weird question is..
Is there ANY program what allows me to type on 2 pages at once.
still on the same pc of course, that would be easy.
Or a program i connect with my laptop, and all i type and do with my mouse on the desktop happens on my laptop on the same moment..
It may sounds really weird, but if you needed to type 2 a4 pages twice because copy paste doesn't work.. You would search for this as well

Hope someone can help me with my stupid question

I don't think that's possible. You could do a network sharing for sharing files if that's an option for you.

Peace.

Sadly i really need to type it twice and send it, so that would not help. Hopefully someone out here knows a solution or trick for this.. There must be, could not be hard in my opinion.

You can create a shared drive and access files through the network using Ethernet cable or WiFi.

Peace.

Sadly that really won't help me

Not sure its possible, windows uses focus to decide what program has control at one time. I can't see anyway to do it.

a network share won't help on 1 computer

What about using some type of software that records your keystrokes then plays them back? This way only 1 Window at a time needs focus, and you only have to type it once, then play it back to the 2nd Window which will go much faster. (Assuming both programs are on the same computer and not your laptop).

You'll have to be careful as you are typing to not use the mouse or those mouse clicks will be recorded too. Try the program below, it has hotkeys to start and stop recording.

Important: Scroll-lock key will stop playback as it's happening if you need to stop it.
