I'm not sure what happens with three or more windows. The problem is that we want the _least_ recently used window and the `select-window' would not fix anything messed up down there. In some sense this virtual list of windows ordered by their use_time gets rotated with every call of `walk-windows'. The real problem is the unholy combination of run_window_configuration_change_hook and `walk-windows'. The former carefully selects each window _without_ recording it and the latter annihilates the former's efforts by selecting the window _and_ recording it. I tried with a `save-selected-window-norecord' macro and equipped `set-frame-selected-window' with an extra "norecord" parameter. This works but is quite clumsy. Also, I'm by no means sure whether the effect of recorded selecting a window within `walk-windows' might have been considered a feature by other callers. martin
