Hello,

From a cmd.exe terminal:
* emacs -Q
* M-x server-start RET

Then, from another cmd.exe terminal:
* emacsclient -t some-file

According to the manual [1], the expected behavior would be to open
"some-file" in a new frame inside the second terminal, but I see that
a new graphical frame is created instead.

Also, if I repeat the experiment starting with "emacs -Q -nw", the
effect is that a new frame is created in the first terminal, when TRT
would be to create the frame in the second terminal.


--- Footnotes ------

[1] Quotation from (info "(emacs) emacsclient Options")

  `-t'
  `--tty'
  `-nw'
       Create a new Emacs frame on the current text-only terminal,
       instead of using an existing Emacs frame.  Emacs can open a
       text-only terminal even if it was started in another text-only
       terminal, or on a graphical display.  If you omit a filename
       argument while supplying this option, the new frame displays the
       `*scratch*' buffer.  *Note Buffers::.
