[OS X Emacs] Aquamacs ... new window upon file open

Hi All -- Thank you.  This does not appear to work [or at least it does not work like it used to do]. Suppose I am running Aqamacs and have no frames open.  Then, I open a file from the finder.  It used to be that a new frame would open.  Now, I need to issue a command such as

	switch-to-buffer

to get a frame to open.

Should I be sending this to the aquamacs at googlegroups listserve?

Now, when I "open"  a file [e.g. a text file] from Terminal or double click on it in the Finder, it opens a buffer in Aquamacs, but that buffer either does not initially display at all or if it does is included as a 2nd window [in the emacs sense] of an existing frame. I would prefer that all new files opened from the Finder display in a new frame [in the emacs sense], i.e., a new window in the OSX sense.  Any guidance on this? -- pr
