Re: Lock buffer to window

[henning]

Thanks, but you are right, its not really what I want to do, I would like to
force a window to show current buffer and not switch buffer until I
explicitly say so. I have been trying to implement this but it was harder
than I had imagined. Maybe I can get by with what you suggested though.

Cheers,

H
