I just prefer working this way; the "code" instance will have easily 40+ files 
open at any time, the other one is much leaner and switching between buffers 
tends to get easier.
Switching buffers with two frames can land me in the other frame (if the 
buffer is already visible there) and often this is not what i want.
Guess this is just the mind thing, trying to keep things separate.
