One of my favorite commands look like this, I have it bound to M-o globally. (defun other-window-or-split () (interactive) (when (one-window-p) (split-window-below) ) (other-window 1) ) Maybe it will be spared from your compression since it is in fact a `other-window-*' command, not a `*-other-window' one? https://dataswamp.org/~incal/emacs-init/window-incal.el Some more fun code: (defmacro with-other-window (&rest body) `(with-selected-window (next-window) ,@body)) (defun apply-in-other-window (fn &rest args) (with-other-window (apply fn args) )) https://dataswamp.org/~incal/emacs-init/window-other.el -- underground experts united https://dataswamp.org/~incal
