It just doesn't appear under the appropos or describe searches. I found it under the variables. [ESC-X describe-variable pop-up-frames]. I used [set-variable] to set the value, and [customize-save-variable] to save it to my .emacs file. Now I get the new windows as desired. Thank you. Next I need to figure out the search issue. Someone suggested it might be a customization setting somewhere. So I'm still digging through all of that. Thanks again. -=John jrocha wrote: > > Hello Drew, > > Thanks ofr the tip on [C-x 5 f] > > I tried the pop-up-frames setting but that command does not seem to exist > for Gnue Emacs 21.3.1 (i586-suse-linux) of 2006-06-16 > > Nor does the pop-up-windows.
