Yes, it's possible using dedicated windows (for details: C-h f set-window-dedicated-p). But it's a little trickier to use: if you call it from a switch-function, it doesn't work when forwarding a message. There's probably something in message-forward that causes the dedicated flag to be reset to nil, but I could not find what. So instead I wrote a little workaround that may be easier to use. I'll send the commit as a reply. Regards, -- Thomas/Schnouki
