MacOSX: Single window operation

MacOSX: Single window operation

Hello,
I have a question on Emacs on Macosx (Cocoa daily build).
I am trying to force Emacs to do everything in a single window (open file
from Finder, from command line most notably).

I tried setting:
(setq display-buffer-reuse-frames t)
(setq pop-up-frames nil)
(setq pop-up-windows nil)
(setq dnd-open-file-other-window nil)

But it does not seem to do what I want and new windows are opened with new
file opened from Terminal or finder.

Any idea ?

Maybe it works to start (emacs-server) and pass files to Emacs.app  
via emacslient (/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin/ 
emacsclient) ...

It is a common mis-use of Mac OS X applications that they tend to  
create new tool windows, or frames in Emacs speak.

Good idea. It works.
For the record, however I tried Carbon Emacs instead of the Cocoa Emacs
build and it does the right thing as a default (and seems to be more
compliant on other options).

I think I will thus stick with Carbon Emacs.

Thank you again !
