Dec 26, 2014 at 15:17 comment added lawlist Frame-Bufs utilizes a custom buffer-list that is stored in the frame-parameter of each frame, and this is one method of keeping the buffers associated with a particular frame. I configured Tabbar to use it and I can switch between associated and non-associated tab groups on a per frame basis. Each of my approximately six (6) frames are full screen, unless I have reduced them so that I can see other programs simultaneously. I switch between frames with a custom function that pulls up a minibuffer list of numbers/letters and the names of the frames to choose from. I use desktop and laptop.

Dec 26, 2014 at 11:02 comment added Tu Do It is convenient when you have each frame with its own window configuration. For example, you can have a frame hold 4 windows contains only relevant documents and another contains only related code buffers. Switching buffers will mess your window configuration that are complex to recreate. You can use registers to save window configurations, but it's not as convenient when you have two monitors to hold two frames.
