Which parameters are meaningul, and for which windows? Well, none, at present. This patch is only one half of the "window nodelete/group" patch. The meaningful parameters are defined in the other half. So, its probably better to remove this comment for now. > - It is wise to return (in `window-parameter' and > `set-window-parameter') directly the parameter alist, instead of a > copy of it? Ok, maybe not. Is there any rule of thumb to decide to do the one or the other? >> And add a note to etc/NEWS about it? > > Sorry, I'm *horrible* at deciding what to write in NEWS... Maybe: ** Functions to handle window paramters were added, similar to the functions for frame parameters. ok, that might at least inspire better efforts from others :) > Juanma -- Joakim Verona
