## Exercises

  1. Load several buffers and travel between them using

  a. The functions from iswitchb

  Which do you like the best? Is there one that makes the other unnecessary?

  2. Is it possible to destroy the window containing the minibuffer?

  3. Think about good uses for dedicated windows and find a good location to bind the functions sams-find-file-dedicated-frame and sams-switch-buffer-dedicated-frame.
