Why should everyone be bothered with this? because renumbering happens. open two dozen of windows when reading, say, www.heise.de, and then close some of the articles you have read; eg windows # 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19 and 23. now fill the holes with the remaining windows. how many keystrokes will this take you? i bet it'll take you a lot more than CTRL-A :renum RETURN > > now, *that* would save some time! > > To choose the appropriate window which is worth your > attention, i recommend the windowlist command. now, if there was such a command then i'd call your suggestion to keep using the windowlist command and its silly up/down selection "chaotic". :-p > As long as you don't use the %u escape, which would > be the ultimate 'buddy list' feature i mean. huh? whatever.
