Yes, You want balance-windows (see below).
C-x 1 C-x 3 C-x 3 C-x +
Will give you three equal size windows in the frame.
allan
C-x + runs the command balance-windows
which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `window.el'.
It is bound to C-x +.
(balance-windows &optional WINDOW-OR-FRAME)
Make windows the same heights or widths in window split subtrees.
When called non-interactively WINDOW-OR-FRAME may be either a
window or a frame. It then balances the windows on the implied
frame. If the parameter is a window only the corresponding window
subtree is balanced.
