[OS X Emacs] Fwd: ns-pop-up-frames and fullscreen

[Jean-Christophe Helary]

I'm not seeing any reaction from emacs-devel so I'm forwarding here too.

I'm seeing this weird behavior in Emacs.app (brew, 25.2) when I work in fullscreen, and something equally weird in Aquamacs.

Can anybody reproduce that ?

> I tested the setting in Aquamacs and found that in Fullscreen, Aquamacs did not respect the ns-pop-up-frame setting to "Never". It opens a new non-fullscreen frame and then opens files either in the fullscreen frame or the non fullscreen frame seemingly depending on which frame has been visited last...
