Well, I can arrive at ------------------------- | |X | | | | | | | ------------------------- | | | | | | | | | ------------------------- with enlarge-window from either ------------------------- | |X | | | | | |-----------| ------------| | | | | | | | | | | ------------------------- or ------------------------- | |X | | | | | | | ------------------------- | | | | | | | | | ------------------------- If I now do another enlarge-window, I would be surprised if the direction of enlargement would suddenly change. So the proper direction of enlargement _can't_ be determined without looking at the underlying tree. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
