Re: Shrinking Vertical Size of Window

[dmg <dmg uvic ca>]

I have always bound a key to call-command

(call-command . "M-C-x")

it can always get you out of a problem.

and i also bind

(maximize-window-horizontally-toggle . "M-C-h")
(maximize-window-vertically-toggle . "M-C-v")
(maximize-window-toggle . "M-C-m")

I use these 3 commands all the time (particularly the vertical, and
general toggle).

I also have a lisp-command that moves the windows "inside"

(dmg-move-window-inside . "M-C-i")

this means move and if necessary, resize. it is part of this module:

http://turingmachine.org/hacking/sawfishLisp/dmg-after-rotate.jl

which is very handy if you rotate the screen.
