@cindex window split tree
A @dfn{window split tree} specifies the layout, size, and relationship
between all windows in one frame.
@defun split-window-tree &optional frame
This function returns the window split tree for frame @var{frame}.
If @var{frame} is omitted, the selected frame is used.
The return value is a list of the form @code{(@var{root} @var{mini})},
where @var{root} represents the window split tree of the frame's
root window, and @var{mini} is the frame's minibuffer window.
If the root window is not split, @var{root} is the root window itself.
Otherwise, @var{root} is a list @code{(@var{dir} @var{edges} @var{w1}
@var{w2} ...)} where @var{dir} is @code{nil} for a horisontal split,
and @code{t} for a vertical split, @var{edges} gives the combined size and
position of the subwindows in the split, and the rest of the elements
are the subwindows in the split. Each of the subwindows may again be
a window or a list representing a window split, and so on. The
@var{edges} element is a list @code{(@var{left}@var{ top}@var{ right}@var{ bottom})}
similar to the value returned by @code{window-edges}.
