Subject: Emacs buffer position per window
Date: Mon, 1 Feb 2010 23:38:46 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5e3a506e1002012038q31480d7cq76112bd13cf30947@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Is there a way to save the current buffer position on a per-window basis,
instead of just a per-buffer basis? For example, the following will move
point in both windows to the same location

Split-window
Navigate to same file in both windows
In one window, move to a different location.  Then, call describe-function,
which uses the other window.
Switch to the *help* window and go back to the original location.  The old
point is lost and replaced with the point in the other buffer.

Is there a way to have the old point location be saved, even if it is not
displayed at the moment?
