Hello!
I fail to find a function that returns the "other" buffer when one has
split a window horizontally.
other-window seemed as a good candidate at first, but I can't make it
work as I wish.
How can I do this?
I need it for a function that changes a horizontally split window to a
vertically split one (to quickly make more rows availible on both
buffers when entering a Ruby debugger session.
Thank you!

Something like this perhaps:
(save-window-excursion
(other-window 1)
(window-buffer))
But have you checked on EmacsWiki is someone has already written a
library for this?

Ah, nice, there was already a function for this :)
