[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

You can do the window control by customizing the `display-buffer-alist`
variable. That's a suggestion if you haven't yet looked at it.

Personally, I use the shackle package which is an interface to
customization of that variable. I mention this because I control where the
man/woman buffers open using this package (

 )
