Thanks Jay! I am only using CVS Emacs and missed that enlarge-window only take two args in 21.3.However, when I tried some more complex configurations of windows, emacs stopped responding and I would have to kill the process. Here are two windows configurations that caused emacs to hang:
The window configurations you tested works well in CVS Emacs. I guess they do not converge because my code depends on the third arg to enlarge-window. I have made some small changes that I hope will make the code work on 21.3 too, but the result will of course is some cases not be as good as in CVS Emacs though. The new version is 0.52 and I have just uploaded it.
I have however found a case where bw-balance does not work, but I believe it is a bug in CVS Emacs. I have told this on the Emacs Devel list and I am waiting for some answer.
Best wishes, Lennart
