;;
;; DESCRIPTION:  
;;
;;   This library provides two unrelated means of managing window
;;   configurations, (the set of windows and associated buffers within a
;;   frame).  The first means associates a name with each stored window
;;   configuration.  The name can then be used to retrieve the window
;;   configuration later.  The following functions provide this behavior:
;;
;;      wconfig-add-by-name
;;      wconfig-delete-by-name
;;      wconfig-restore-by-name
;;
;;   The second means of window configuration management is through the use
;;   of a ring structure, just like the Emacs kill ring except the elements
;;   stored are window configurations instead of textual regions.  The
;;   following functions support storage and sequential retrieval of window
;;   configurations:
;;
;;      wconfig-ring-save
;;      wconfig-yank-pop
;;      wconfig-delete-pop
;;
;;   None of this information is stored between Emacs sessions, so your
;;   window configurations will last only through a single session of use.
;;
;;   Based in part on kill-ring code from simple.el.
;;
;; DESCRIP-END.
