I am facing problems in "redeem"... I need to understand the way windows in GNU Emacs works before I can come up with a robust solution. It is a sort of GC for scroll bars. Redisplay marks all scroll bars as possibly to be freed, then when it redisplays a window, it marks that window's scroll bar as "still in use". I think that redeem_scroll_bar does the latter part of the job. At the end,. those that weren't redeemed are really deallocated.
