I've got a simple question I was hoping somebody could help me with: I want to set up emacs to be a little IDE for some C++ work I wish to do. Here's the keypresses needed to make it look how I want it: C-x 2 C-x ^ C-x ^ C-x ^ C-x ^ C-x ^ C-x ^ C-x ^ C-x 3 C-x o C-x o M-x shell C-x o What this basically does is make two editor windows on the upper-left and right, and a shell at the bottom where I can do my compiles and test runs. So, how can I have this set up in my .emacs file so it defaults to look like this (or something close to it? Thanks for your help! Ryan
