Hi Yegappan,
good to see some work on this. Just some quick notes.

Hi all,
I have created the following new functions to return information
about buffers, windows and tabpages.
Pull request: https://github.com/vim/vim/pull/833
1. Function: getbufinfo([{expr}])
Returns information about all the buffers as a List of dictionaries.
If {expr} is supplied, then the information about the buffer
specified by {expr} is returned as a Dict. If {expr} is not
supplied,
then information about all the buffers is returned.
Each returned list item is a dictionary with the following entries:
changed TRUE if the buffer is modified.
changedtick number of changes made to the buffer.
hidden TRUE if the buffer is hidden.
listed TRUE if the buffer is listed.
lnum current line number in buffer.
loaded TRUE if the buffer is loaded.
name full path to the file in the buffer.
nr buffer number.
options dictionary of buffer local options.
variables dictionary of buffer local variables.
What about a list of window ids, in which the buffer is shown?
Function: getbufinfo([{dict}])
Returns information about all the buffers matching the criteria
specified in the {dict} dictionary. The following keys can be
specified in {dict}:
buflisted include only listed buffers.
bufloaded include only loaded buffers.
How about bufname like filtering?
2. Function: getwininfo([{win_id}])
Returns information about all the windows as a List. If {win_id} is
not supplied, then information about all the windows in all the tab
pages is returned as a List. If {win_id} is supplied, then
information about the window with ID {win_id} is returned as a Dict.
Each list item is a dictionary with the following entries:
nr window number.
tpnr tab page number.
winid window ID.
height window height.
width window width.
bufnum number of buffer in the window.
options dictionary of window local options.
variables dictionary of window local variables.
perhaps a list of dicts with the relevant information for signs, shown
in the window?
Best,
Christian
