Working with buffers and windows
To switch to another buffer,
type C-x b. Then type the name of the buffer. GNU Emacs will try to
guess which buffer you want and display it at the end of the prompt as
the default. If that's the buffer you want, you can just press RET. To
get a list of all the buffers, use C-x C-b. Notice that
input completion works on buffer names
as it did on file and function names.
A buffer can be discarded with the sequence C-x k. It prompts for the
buffer name as with C-x b.
You can switch to another window with C-x o or change the current
window to occupy the entire screen with C-x 1. Similarly, C-x 2 splits
the current window and C-x 0 deletes the current window.
