Hello,
I'm having a very hard time understanding the documentation for
display-buffer-alist. emacs24 behaves differently than emacs23. Here is
the behaviour that I am used to and would like to return to.
Emacs 23:
C-x C-f (find-file)
the file that I select opens in the current window
Emacs 24:
C-x C-f (find-file)
the file that I select opens in another window
the window that the file will open in, in emacs 24 is unpredictable, making
it very difficult to organize a multiple window session.
Could someone please post the setq command to get emacs 24 to behave the
way I am used to.
something along the lines of
(setq display-buffer-alist '(??????))
all the other examples that I have seen use functions like setcar, setcdr
which don't help me since my display-buffer-alist is nil.
Thanks,
Paddy
