For the short term, and if you can create your window-config without
too much fingerwork-hair, maybe C-x { and start building it, and
when done assign it into a register (as above), then via list-kbd-macro
and edit-kbd-macro save them in a file?
And if you screw up building the physical screen config, I suppose you
can just undo your mistake and fix it, still while in the C-x ( --
or, maybe if bold, use edit-kbd-macro and EDIT it?
Pretty easy to wrap a defun around it, the list-kbd-macro?
This have any chance of being a quick super-kludgy work-around?
Thanks!
David
