Re: Reuse frame with emacsclient and/or use shell aliases when finding files

I don't think I'm specifically looking for -n, although I do use it. I
haven't used emacsclient enough to understand the nuance of C-x #
instead of typical methods like C-x k or otherwise.

I haven't worked into these more advanced issues yet, but I can
certainly imagine that I will soon want to know how to do these
things. For example, I usually have separate things going in different
virtual desktops. It would be nice to have four separate severs
running and for a call to emacsclient to connect to the corresponding
server for that virtual desktop. If anyone has any solutions for that,
it would be great.
