There are two commands which seem to save and restore buffer/window-
configurations in a frame that might suffice for what you want:
window-configuration-to-register
(bound to Control-x r w) to save it
and
jump-to-register
(bound to Control-x r j)
So if you get a particular buffer/window-configuration set up you can
save it with c-x r w
(you have to then type a number for a specific
register e.g. 1, when prompted)
Then you can set up another buffer/window-configuration and save that
with c-x r w
(giving a different register number when prompted)
Then you restore them at any time with c-x r j
(and register number desired at the prompt)
You can simplify the keystroke combinations and typing by adding
something like this to your .emacs file:
(defun SaveWinConfigToRegister1 ()
"save window configuration to register 1"
(interactive)
(window-configuration-to-register 1)
)
(defun RestoreRegister1 ()
"restore configuration from register 1"
(interactive)
(jump-to-register 1)
)
(defun SaveWinConfigToRegister2 ()
"save window configuration to register 2"
(interactive)
(window-configuration-to-register 2)
)
(defun RestoreRegister2 ()
"restore configuration from register 2"
(interactive)
(jump-to-register 2)
)
(defun SaveWinConfigToRegister3 ()
"save window configuration to register 3"
(interactive)
(window-configuration-to-register 3)
)
(defun RestoreRegister3 ()
"restore configuration from register 3"
(interactive)
(jump-to-register 3)
)
; <CTRL-F1> to save window configuation to register 1
(global-set-key (kbd "<C-f1>") 'SaveWinConfigToRegister1)
; <ALT-F1> to restore window configuration saved in register 1
(global-set-key (kbd "<M-f1>") 'RestoreRegister1)
; <CTRL-F1> to save window configuation to register 2
(global-set-key (kbd "<C-f2>") 'SaveWinConfigToRegister2)
