Date: Sun, 21 Nov 2021 21:33:52 +0200

It's hard to edebug in a predefined window configuration
when edebug pops up source code buffers in random windows,
and thus continually changes the window configuration.

Would it be possible to always show the debugged source files
in the same window?

Actually, this is easy to do with a simple configuration:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(advice-add 'edebug-pop-to-buffer :around
            (lambda (orig-fun buffer &optional window)
              (when (string-prefix-p "edebug" (format "%s" real-this-command))
                (window--display-buffer buffer (old-selected-window) 'reuse
                                        '(nil (inhibit-same-window . nil))))
              (funcall orig-fun buffer window))
            '((name . edebug-pop-to-buffer-same-window)))
#+end_src
