29.12 Frame Configurations

A frame configuration records the current arrangement of frames, all their properties, and the window configuration of each one. (See section 28.17 Window Configurations.)

Function: current-frame-configuration

This function returns a frame configuration list that describes the current arrangement of frames and their contents.

Function: set-frame-configuration configuration &optional nodelete

This function restores the state of frames described in configuration.

Ordinarily, this function deletes all existing frames not listed in configuration. But if nodelete is non-nil, the unwanted frames are iconified instead.
