The "multiple views on one document" feature of TeXmacs has become unstable since a while (there can also be occasional segfaults due to the undo/redo mechanism), so we removed it from the official interface.

Until we have re-implemented this feature in a better way, you can still use it in the way you suggest, but "at your own risk".  In particular, this bug will only be corrected when re-implementing this feature in a better way.

This bug stems from this discussion in the forum:

multiple windows for the same file

This occurs both in "multiple documents share window" and "Documents in separate windows" mode. If you open the same file in two windows (something that is useful for long papers). Closing one windows closes all instances of that document in all windows.

This is counterproductive.

Sometimes when writing a paper it is useful to open a copy of that document to navigate to a different place. After I am finished checking whatever I am checking I would like to close the window and get back to continuing with the paper. This is not possible since closing the windows closes everything.
