Pin/lock certain files/buffers to specific tabs

Is there a way to configure Emacs to lock certain files/buffers to specific tabs? For example, if I want all ERC buffers to stay in the ERC tab, or a selected set of org files to stay in the Org tab, etc.

Hi, what do you mean by "tab" in this context? In Emacs there are buffers, windows and frames. Maybe you mean frame?

@plugd @hyperreal Emacs has tabs as well (C-x t C-h)

Wow, I actually searched through both the Emacs and Elisp info manuals before making that claim, and came up empty. Sorry for the noise!

Hi, thanks for your reply. I found exactly what I need with the bufler package: https://github.com/alphapapa/bufler.el
