I'd like to fiddle with my epoch to arrange the following sort of
setup - and my attempts to do this have not yet succeeded.  So, does
anyone have anything that will help?

I'd like to have a maximum of about 10 epoch screens, each sized
at about 80x60 and placed at the top of the screen with about 
this much (shows with thumb and index finger) apart horizontally.  
I want each to be titled with the  name of the file in them (yes, 
I do use the titles package - this isnt the part thats sticking me).
I'd also like an epoch information type screen where I could put
*scratch*, *Help* and *Buffer List* etc (but not *Manual Entry* or 
*shell*) all the way to the right of the screen and with reverse
video - that is, this screen should be shared by all these buffers
when they are displayed.  I'd also like to be able to divide up a
screen into two windows, then visit a buffer or file in the bottom
one without auto-magic popup of a screen that already has that buffer
or file.

I've tried to do this with the *create-screen-alist-hook* and with the
*select-screen-hook* but to no avail.
