Window Configuration Type
-------------------------

   A "window configuration" stores information about the positions,
sizes, and contents of the windows in a frame, so you can recreate the
same arrangement of windows later.

   Window configurations do not have a read syntax; their print syntax
looks like `#'.  *Note Window Configurations::,
for a description of several functions related to window configurations.

Frame Configuration Type
------------------------

   A "frame configuration" stores information about the positions,
sizes, and contents of the windows in all frames.  It is actually a
list whose CAR is `frame-configuration' and whose CDR is an alist.
Each alist element describes one frame, which appears as the CAR of
that element.

   *Note Frame Configurations::, for a description of several functions
related to frame configurations.
