Hi Ano,
Thanks a lot, that is very useful for a lot of things. I had a bit
of trouble finding dedicated mode - its part of emacs goodies and is
quite small:
;;;dedicated mode 13.04.2000
(defvar dedicated-mode nil
"Mode variable for dedicated minor mode.")
(make-variable-buffer-local 'dedicated-mode)
(defun dedicated-mode (&optional arg)
"Dedicated minor mode."
(interactive "P")
(setq dedicated-mode (not dedicated-mode))
(set-window-dedicated-p (selected-window) dedicated-mode)
(if (not (assq 'dedicated-mode minor-mode-alist))
(setq minor-mode-alist
(cons '(dedicated-mode " D")
minor-mode-alist))))
"set-window-dedicated-p" was the function call I was looking for.
Unfortunately links in the dedicated window do not work unless I C-u
enter, but that isn't the end of the world. I didn't see anyway to
specify link following behaviour - i.e. always follow link in another
window.
Thanks, Jody
