Re: switch to previous buffer

Le Wang...
Thank you so much buddy. That is exactly what I wanted and even more.

I used this part of the page you recommended, I added *Buffer List" to the 
ignored list "crs-hated-buffers" and Boom...it worked.

    ; necessary support function for buffer burial
    (defun crs-delete-these (delete-these from-this-list)
      "Delete DELETE-THESE FROM-THIS-LIST."
      (cond
       ((car delete-these)
        (if (member (car delete-these) from-this-list)
            (crs-delete-these (cdr delete-these) (delete (car delete-these)
                                                     from-this-list))
          (crs-delete-these (cdr delete-these) from-this-list)))
       (t from-this-list)))
    ; this is the list of buffers I never want to see
    (defvar crs-hated-buffers
      '("KILL" "*Compile-Log*"))
    ; might as well use this for both
    (setq iswitchb-buffer-ignore (append '("^ " "*Buffer") crs-hated-buffers))
    (defun crs-hated-buffers ()
      "List of buffers I never want to see, converted from names to buffers."
      (delete nil
              (append
               (mapcar 'get-buffer crs-hated-buffers)
               (mapcar (lambda (this-buffer)
                         (if (string-match "^ " (buffer-name this-buffer))
                             this-buffer))
                       (buffer-list)))))
    ; I'm sick of switching buffers only to find KILL right in front of me
    (defun crs-bury-buffer (&optional n)
      (interactive)
      (unless n
        (setq n 1))
      (let ((my-buffer-list (crs-delete-these (crs-hated-buffers)
                                              (buffer-list (selected-frame)))))
        (switch-to-buffer
         (if (< n 0)
             (nth (+ (length my-buffer-list) n)
                  my-buffer-list)
           (bury-buffer)
           (nth n my-buffer-list)))))
    (global-set-key [(control tab)] 'crs-bury-buffer)
    (global-set-key [(control meta tab)] (lambda ()
                                           (interactive)
                                           (crs-bury-buffer -1)))
