[OS X Emacs] one-buffer-one-frame question

[David Reitter]

I think you guys misunderstand each other. Paul wants to open a new  
frame for some functions, but not in general.

My suggestion would be to turn one-buffer-one-frame-mode on, but then  
use the functions that are provided (such as switch-to-buffer-here) to  
switch the buffer within a frame.

Alternatively, some hackery such as

(fset 'aquamacs-find-file 'find-file-other-frame)

and similar should do the job. Somebody would have to work that out  
for drag&drop actions - they are handled via a keymap, so a simple  
"define-key" should do the job for this.

Perhaps somebody else here can work out the details to help Paul.
