Subject: Opening special buffers "*Messages*" and "*scratch*" in new frames
Date: Tue, 11 Jun 2024 11:29:37 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <66681903.050a0220.6da3d.41e7@mx.google.com> (raw)
Greetings,
a few weeks back there was some discussion on this list about opening
special buffers in new frames. This motivated me to add the following
lines to my Emacs configuration file:
(setq display-buffer-alist
(list (cons "\\(^ [*]\\)\\|\\(^[*]Completions[*]\\)"
display-buffer--same-window-action)
; (cons "^[*]\\(Messages\\|scratch\\)[*]"
; '(display-buffer-pop-up-frame
; (reusable-frames . t)))
(cons "^[*]"
'((display-buffer-reuse-window
display-buffer-pop-up-frame)
(reusable-frames . t )
(inhibit-same-window . nil))))
switch-to-buffer-in-dedicated-window 'pop
switch-to-buffer-obey-dislay-actions t)
However, regardless of whether or not the three commented-out lines a-
bove were uncommented, buffers "*Messages*" and "*scratch*" were always
opened in the current window of the current frame.
But explicitly running "C-x 5 b *Messages*" or "C-x 5 b *scratch*" work
as expected.
What did I do wrong?
Sincerely,
Rainer
