Wanted - Popup menu of buffers
#81

I would like to be able to popup a menu of the current set of buffers and
select a buffer with the mouse - like you would select a menu option. I am
current running X11R5pl10/twm/epoch4.0p0/SunOS IPC 4.1.

Has anyone tried to do this type of thing before? I already use twm menus
to send commands to epoch, but I dont think it is possible to create a menu
on the fly (like a list of buffers). I would be interested in all solutions, 
including using other window managers!

Thanks in advance,
Anthony.

Hyperbole includes this feature, among many others.  It uses the
standard Emacs buffer menu.  Anonymous ftp to:
"/anonymous@wilma.cs.brown.edu:pub/hyperbole".
See the "README" file there.

It looks bad, to say the least, if your documentation crashes.

One company I can think of spent $90 billion and never got in the game.

I do not see even the need for another package. Just use a mouse key to
pop up the buffer-menu, and use local mouse mappings in the buffer-menu to
go to the necessary buffer.
