Re: Question about Emacs client and server

[PierGianLuca]

Thank you very much, Eric!

It work almost smoothly. But it still has some "glitches" (with respect to my 
workflow).

For example, if I issue a "kill-current-buffer" in a "client buffer" (no "@"), 
then the buffer will be killed, but the frame stays there, displaying some other buffer (which is what I 
want). If the frame displayed two buffers, the other buffer remains.

If I issue a "kill-current-buffer" in a "client buffer" (showing "@"), then the whole 
frame is also closed. This is slightly annoying because I have to check whether the "@" is there or not, in 
order to know whether the frame will be deleted or not.
