Project Butler

My Emacs package "Project Butler" has been accepted into Melpa.

It adds a further option to the `project-switch-commands` of the built-in `project.el` and opens buffers and lays them out for you.

It uses a very simple syntax to describe window layouts. For example, `1|2_3` results in a layout like this:

|----|----|
|    | 2  |
| 1  |----|
|    | 3* |
|----|----|

When set up for a project, all it takes is to switch to the project (e.g. by C-x

p p ), choose the project, type “o”. And that’s it.

Optionally, the butler also cleans up after you.

This is my first emacs package. Also I’m not a programmer by trade, I only wrote this to scratch my own itch. Any constructive feedback is very welcome!

You can use the issues in the git repo, or my anouncement in the fediverse for feedback:
