The single-window package forces Emacs to open buffers in the current active window. It keeps your carefully arranged layouts intact, reduces visual clutter, and provides a much more predictable workflow. To ensure it does not break standard Emacs functionality, the package is built to handle the following edge cases and integrations out of the box: - Transient and Magit: Excludes Transient buffers by default, which ensures that Magit popup menus render correctly and manage their own window placement. - Ediff control panel: Excludes the Ediff control interface so it can maintain its specific layout requirements without breaking. - Temporary and utility buffers: Ignores the minibuffer, asynchronous Emacs warnings, Org capture popups, and built-in *Completions* buffers so they do not hijack your active workspace. - Dedicated windows: Safely handles dedicated windows in the background (e.g., grep-mode or embark-export), temporarily un-dedicating them to load the buffer without throwing errors or breaking the layout. - Org-mode integrations: Configures Org-mode to open source blocks, the agenda, and indirect buffers directly in the active window - Manual overrides: Allows you to temporarily bypass the single-window enforcement by passing a prefix argument (e.g., C-u) before running a command. The package also provides the following customization options: - Custom window rules: Provides a setting (`single-window-respect-display-buffer-alist') that lets you prioritize your own custom display rules for specific buffers, while falling back to the single-window behavior for everything else. - Customizable exclusions: Allows you to define additional exclusions via the `single-window-exclude-regexps' variable, which accepts a list of regular expressions to match ignored buffer names. - Popper integration: Provides `single-window-exclude-popper' (disabled by default) to allow popper to bypass the single-window package enforcement for its popups.
