What I mean is that customizing display-buffer-alist is not very user-friendly even though I know how to use it. It is also not mentionned in (info "(emacs) Window Choice"). OTOH it is a defcustom, so I have mixed feelings about this variable. Anyway, a possible way to achieve the effect I asked for is to add a suitable entry in display-buffer-alist, but it requires writing an elisp function (the predefined ones don't fit the bill). I'll be happy to provide such a function if that is the preferred route. Nicolas.
