Make sure that the windows do not overlap one another. They are either completely separate from one another, or completely replace one another.

Another technique is to always use windows that only overlap each other on the left hand side. Additionally, no window overlaps the top or bottom border of a window on its right.
For example, a program might display windows 1, 2 and then 3. The final display might look like this:
| Panel |

..... |
| No Format |
| ............................ : :............... : : : : :.............................. : : : : : WINDOW : WINDOW THREE : : WINDOW : TWO : : : ONE : : : : : : : :
.............. : : : : :..........................: |
Note however, that any one of the 3 windows can be redisplayed without causing the top or bottom border or any existing window to disappear. For example, redisplaying window 2 would cause a display like this:
| No Format |

............................ : : ................................ : : : : .......... : : : : : WINDOW : WINDOW : : WINDOW : TWO : THREE : : ONE : : : : : : : :......... : : : : : : :..............................: : : : :..........................: |
