Someone posted this on the BBDB mailing list
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/bbdb-user/2018-09/msg00031.html
But the question is quite generic, and I guess it must be an issue
for other packages, too:
BBDB wants to pop-up a window in a frame that already has multiple
windows. Different users like to do this in different ways and
split an existing window vertically or horizontally, giving a
customizable percentage of screen estate to the new window.
Is there a general function that BBDB could use here, a function
that users can customize for their needs?
Currently, BBDB uses the function bbdb-pop-up-window for this, which
already provides some flexibility. I could try to tweak this
function as described in the above request. But it seems to me that
I might reinvent the wheel. There should be general code for this
that BBDB could use.
Am I missing something?
