Subject: AW: AW: Tabs in Emacs?

Message-ID: <7697A57B1AD9104F993CDF6A5B69430C08D5A97269@CORPMAIL08.corp.capgemini.com> (raw)

Well, cause of Emacs' complex model with buffers, windows displaying buffers and frames displaying windows and on top window-configurations there is no easy answer, i have to admit.
But nevertheless i will make try:
IMHO tabs should an a frame-basis and each tab should display window-configurations, i.e. switching to a tab X should display exactly the window-layout and contents as X has contained when the user has left it
And each window of the window-configuration of a tab should contain it's headerline...
Is this understandable?

Note that exactly tabs _should_ work in Emacs is actually quite
contentious (that's one of the reasons they haven't been implemented) --
Emacs has a significantly more complex model than most apps, and it's
not really clear the best way to map the usual sort of tab-bar onto that
model (read one of the long tortuous emacs-devel threads on this subject
for details I guess)...
