I think the OP wants two windows with *different* contents so that he can 
copy/paste from one to the other. Your solution keeps the two windows in sync. 
I'm not even sure why you would want to do that.

I think the solution is simply to open the other spreadsheet (which will open 
in a separate window) and then use your window manager to "tile" the two 
windows appropriately. 

On Windows you do this by *right clicking* on the task bar and choosing one of 
the two "tile windows" options from the menu that appears. Minimise other 
windows before tiling so they don't get in the way. I don't klnow how to tile 
windows on any of the *nix window managers.

Once the windows are both visible, you can copy/paste from one to the other.

I have copied the OP because he isn't subscribed.
