Isn’t is what most users need while editing the code block? The possibility of evaluating the code to test and see what happens? At present, one window shows the original buffer, which is, at least in my case, not needed while I am editing the code.

Is this an R specific need? Do people working with other languages not need this?

Thanks for the pointer. Let me look at this.
