Note that apart from the

(load-file "c:/drews-lisp-20/hexrgb.el")
(load-file "c:/drews-lisp-20/fit-frame.el")

the throw-three.el you sent me contains

(load-file "c:/drews-lisp-20/window-2011-06-21a-MARTIN.el")

which contains the old definitions which don't work in your case.  I
removed all three lines in my version.


Apart from that I can see the following:

If I do -f "1on1-emacs" from the command line I see the "bad" behavior.
But I see the same behavior if I do -f "1on1-emacs" with an old Emacs
that does NOT contain my changes.  In both cases the *Completions* frame
is selected.  So please verify that this invocation DTRT with an old
Emacs of yours.

If I omit -f "1on1-emacs" from the command line and evaluate the
expression (1on1-emacs) after my initial frame appeared I don't see the
bad behavior.

Please clarify these issues.

Thanks, martin.
