I use tabs as provided by elscreen: http://www.morishima.net/~naoto/software/elscreen/ And I set `elscreen-display-tab' to make tabs invisible. I can still switch from one tab to another: in this case, a tab is really just a window configuration, but switching from one window configuration to another one without having to store them is quite handy. -- Bastien
