Ok, and how do users configure emacs to automatically split windows in such a way that they aren't wider (or narrower) than the text to be displayed in them while achieving the window layout they want? >> Does this plan involve functionality to freeze window layouts or to >> "frameify" windows? > > In the proposed designs such parts of the window layout are called > "window groups" or "framelettes" that can behave as a separate frame. Hm, sounds good to me. Is there some more info about this available? Will this be implemented?
