Well, let me ask a practical question to see what I can do with your new features: Basically I'm fine with the traditional two-windows emacs, I just want *Compilation* and *grep* have their own (third) window. This additional window should be on a second frame placed on the right screen side with say 40% width and 60% height. Like this: +--------------screen-------------+ | +---1.frame---+ +--2.frame--+ | | | | | | | | | files | | compile | | | | | | grep | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | | | | | | | | +-------------+ | +---------------------------------+ So when I hit the "compile" key I want the second frame to open unless it is already open and I want the compilation output go to this frame. Plus, when I click on a compilation error line, I want this file being shown in the first frame, replacing whatever there is. How do I get this? Thanks, --- grischka
