Hi:
Simple question, does emacs has any function to change the window split
from horizontal to vertical. For example?
Thanks in advance
Ergus

Hi,
I don't think there is a builtin function; there's an EmacsWiki page
with some useful information here:

Think you have to do it the hard way, and work it out one step at a time.

`split-window-vertically' will split the window
vertically ... yes, it's the truth! ... if
that's what you mean?
If you want to change some default behavior
when splitting windows please tell what
function it is you use to do that.

C-x 2 ; does split-window-below
C-x 3 ; does split-window-right
A use case could be for 'C-x 2' to always split in the direction of
toggle-state. The symbols '-' and '|' make sense for toggle-state
direction as part of keychord. That frees up 'C-x 3' for something
else, possibly as Prefix Command.

`split-window-horizontally' and
`split-window-vertically' are aliases for
-below and -right, respectively.
Two aliases that one shouldn't be in a hurry
pruning IMO...

In MELPA there is ‘transpose-frame’; a very useful package I wish was
part of core Emacs. Quoting from its commentary section:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
;; This program provides some interactive functions which allows users
;; to transpose windows arrangement in currently selected frame:

Could you try and see if we could get it into GNU ELPA, at least?
I.e. see if we have (or can get) the needed copyright paperwork and if
the authors are interested?

Sure. I’ll try to contact the author and then report back.
