;;; winsav.el --- Save and restore window structure ;; ;; Author: Lennart Borgman ;; Created: Sun Jan 14 00:27:19 2007 ;; Version: 0.70 ;; Last-Updated: Wed Jan 09 00:50:22 2008 (3600 +0100) ;; Keywords: ;; Compatibility: ;; ;; Features that might be required by this library: ;; ;; `cl'. ;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;; ;;; Commentary: ;; ;; This library was orignally written to solve the problem of adding a ;; window to the left of some windows in a frame ;; ;; ___________ ;; | | | ;; | 1 | 2 | ;; |____|____| ;; | | ;; | 3 | ;; |_________| ;; ;; so that the window structure on the frame becomes ;; ;; ___________ ;; | | | | ;; | | 1| 2 | ;; | B|__|___| ;; | A| | ;; | R| 3 | ;; |__|______| ;; ;; ;; This problem can be solved by this library. However the solution in ;; this library is a bit more general: You first copy the window ;; structure and then restore that into another window. To do the ;; above you first copy the window structure in the first frame above ;; with `winsav-get-window-tree'. Then you create windows like this: ;; ;; ___________ ;; | | | ;; | | | ;; | B| | ;; | A| | ;; | R| | ;; |__|______| ;; ;; ;; Finally you use `winsav-put-window-tree' to put the window ;; structure into the right window. (Of course you could have put BAR ;; above, under etc.) ;; ;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;; ;; Bugs and limitations: ;; ;; Juanma Barranquero has pointed out there is a serious limitation in ;; this way of doing it when overlays with 'window properties are ;; used. The problem is that any pointers to windows are made invalid ;; since they are deleted. So in fact any code that relies on saved ;; pointers to windows will have problem if the window is one of those ;; that are involved here. ;; ;; To overcome this problem when doing something like inserting a BAR ;; window (see above) a new window has to be inserted in the existing ;; window tree on a frame in a way that is currently not supported in ;; Emacs. ;; ;; It would be nice to be have primitives to manipulate the window ;; tree more generally from elisp. That requires implementation of ;; them at the C level of course. ;; ;; However it is probably much easier to implement it quite a bit less ;; general. The concept of splitting is maybe then the right level to ;; search for primitives at. ;; ;; My conclusion is that it will take some time to find suitable ;; primitives for this. ;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;; ;;; Change log: ;; ;; Version 0.71: ;; ;; - Added rotation of window structure. ;; ;; Version 0.70: ;; ;; - Support for save and restore from file. ;; ;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;; ;; This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify ;; it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by ;; the Free Software Foundation; either version 2, or (at your option) ;; any later version. ;; ;; This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, ;; but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of ;; MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
