Hi Eli,

Thanks for the comments!

In almost all my byte-compile, warnings like "Warning: assignment to free variable...",
"Warning: the function ‘foo’ might not be defined at runtime", and etc. occur.
Warnings and Errors have Emacs display the *Compile-log* buffer
(this is the default behavior). I usually ignores this kind of warnings,
so I just move focus to the *Compile-log* buffer window, bury it (keybind "q" by default),
and then I can restore the original window configuration. I want to skip the step to move focus to
the *Compile-log* buffer window.
