AFAICT, neither the doc string nor the manual says what toggling the
side windows DOES or MEANS.  Just what behavior or appearance is
toggled?  What happens when a side window is - or all side windows are -
toggled?

The command is said to be "handy to toggle the appearance of all side
windows on a specified frame".  But I have no idea what that appearance
toggling amounts to.  Does it swap left for right windows and top for
bottom?  Does it hide/show the currently shown/hidden side windows?
Does it reverse the order?  Does it change the focus?  Just what gets
toggled?

OK, I did that, and also changed the wording to be a bit more
reader-friendly.
