For example, it would be n= ice if when I display a list of existing buffers by typing C-x C-b it would= be possible to group the buffers in the list, and when I called C-x b only= the buffers in the current grouping would be available. (To get at the oth= ers it would be necessary to change the current buffer workspace.) Have you seen tabbar mode? [Sorry if others have mentioned it already]
