For keys that are bound to commands that manipulate the "other" window (not commands that open another window, but commands that use an existing one), bind them instead to commands that do the same thing when there is another window, but let the user do something else, otherwise? For instance, instead of binding C-M-v and M-next to scroll-other-window, bind them to something like scroll-other-window-or-*:
The basic idea that these keys could do something else as a possibly-useful fallback might be good. I don't like that specific proposal because it is rather complex to use. I'd rather have something that is natural and useful for beginners. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
