An important but not so used feature in Windows XP
Windows XP has lots of features that many of us don't even know of. Such a feature is the "Tile Windows" feature. It allows a user to work with two separate windows at the same time. Here's how it works:
Many times you need to copy texts from one window to another. Suppose you have found an important article on Wikipedia and you want to use some parts of it for your class presentation. But you don't want to copy all of it. And switching windows in this case is also very frustrating.
All you need to do is:
1. Open two windows. One is the window to copy from and another to the window you're going to paste it.
2. Now hold the 'Ctrl' key and right click on the non active minimized window on the task bar.
3. Choose 'Tile Vertically'. And here you go!
* Alternatively you can also select 'Tile Vertically' depending on your need. This feature is also available on Windows Vista.
