Thanks.


For example, suppose that I had 2 frames X and Y.

Suppose that Vframe_list = ( X Y Z T ) and selected_frame = X.

What would you do for emacs to display

 (caddr (member (selected-frame)
                         (frame-list) ) ) = Z

instead of X?

In general, suppose that you want to display a frame different of
selected_frame .

 What should you do? Apart from redisplay_internal, in which functions
should modify?




Alin.
