It could eventually switch to 4, 5, since those are ;; currently used for -other-window, -other-frame bindings. ;; ;; (info "(emacs) Pop Up Window") (info "(emacs) Creating Frames") ;; ;; This adds advice to switch-to-buffer; eventually Emacs could ;; reimplement switch-to-buffer to do the same. ;;;; Todo: ;; - Pay attention to bindings added to ctl-x-4-map and ctl-x-5-map ;; - Should `C-x 7 C-h' display the transient map? ;; - `C-x 7 C-h k f' should show `find-file' rather than `self-insert-command'. ;; This should probably be fixed in set-transient-map. ;;; Code: (defvar ofw--just-set nil "Non-nil if we just set the prefix in the previous command.")
