Side by side windows

As usual, I'm sure there's a way to do this but I can't figure it out.

In Win 7, you could drag a window to the far right or far left and it would "1/2 maximize" to that side of the screen. You could do the same with another window on the opposite side to easy view two windows each filling exactly half of the screen.

Yes, I realize I can accomplish this manually, but if you've never done it you can't appreciate how quick and easy this is when you can just slide...and release the button an viola, it's done.

Suggestions?

You can try Cinch (pay) or Great Tools For Your Mac By Andreas Hegenberg » BetterTouchTool, BetterSnapTool & SecondBar (free). I use the latter and it not only gets you that Windows 7 functionality, but also a lot of other cool gestures..

I am so glad I asked, and even happier you replied! This is exactly what I wanted. Already using it and already sent the dude a donation. I'll probably use this even more when I get a new Thunderbolt display later this year.

Just curious which program you obtained - assume SoundBar? Can you provide a short description of how this works - may be a feature I could use? I'm assuming that just one of those windows is active? Thanks for any information - Dave
