Yes, I've checked it.  The documentation is clearer indeed!

I'm using a simple (with-output-to-temp-buffer "*Help" ...) as I don't
think people will need this help window *that* often.

I implemented window-resize.el as a mode because it was easier for me to
read my code than to check whether yours had room for improvements on
some features (even if I know you know it has).  The ring for window
configurations in winsize.el is okay, and I like the `!' `<' '>' keys.

I'm not into colors and mouse pointer movements, but that's just a
matter of taste and it's optional, as you stated before.

What I still found a bit confusing is the fact that the M-<arrow> keys
either select a window or select a border to move.  In any case, thanks
for the exchange of ideas!
