From time to time I like to pop open a new frame (GUI window) with cmd + n which gives me a new frame. However if I create a new frame and I have an existing frame with 2 splits the new frame also is open with the same 2 splits with the same buffers. I'd like this new frame to open with a single split by default, is this possible?

    I have no idea what command you use to pop open a frame, but is C-x 5 2 what you're looking for?

  • The question is not very clear. By "2 splits" do you mean 3 windows in the frame, and by "single split" you mean 2 windows?

  • as @T.Verron notes C-x 5 2 (make-frame-command), opens a new frame with no window splits out of the box.
