Re: Zoom on a buffer

[Greg Hill]

Alexandre,

Try putting something like:

        (defun zoom-in () (interactive)
          (window-configuration-to-register ?z)
          (delete-other-windows)
          (global-set-key [?\C-z] 'zoom-out))

        (defun zoom-out () (interactive)
          (jump-to-register ?z)
          (global-set-key [?\C-z] 'zoom-in))

        (global-set-key [?\C-z] 'zoom-in)

in your .emacs file.  Then you can use Control-Z to toggle back and forth.

If you want, you could use this same basic approach for saving 
several different configurations that you like to switch back and 
forth among.  Just use a different register for each configuration.

See chapter 10 of the GNU Emacs Manual for a discussion of Registers. 
See section 28.17 of the GNU Emacs Lisp Reference Manual for a 
discussion of Window Configurations.
