From: Reuben Thomas <rrt <at> sc3d.org> To: 6619 <at> debbugs.gnu.org Subject: bug#6619: 23.2; Opening a window with emacsclient brings other window to front Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2010 14:12:03 +0100
When I open a window with emacsclient, my current window (in Emacs-speak, “frame”) is raised. I am not sure if this is an Emacs or a WM problem (I am using Compiz under GNOME 2.30). If I use the “-c” flag to emacsclient, my existing frame is not raised, but two new frames are created instead of one, both of which disappear when I type C-x #.
