The function itself returns (indirectly, via switch-to-buffer-other-frame) the buffer and not the frame, just as all the *-other-frame functions."get at"...? You want to get *to* the frame, or get the actual frame? `get-other-frame' perhaps? Or go to it, do (selected-frame), then return transparently. Is there a frame-save-excursion? No, but perhaps you can make it work somehow. By the way: Why do people use frames?
I use 2 frames under w32, w64, courier (monospace 8 line high) to display *Calendar* and arial (proportional font) for everything else. Is there any other way to accomplish this? Is there a way to read display geometry so I can use the same .emacs for laptops and desktops? Now I have to mouse around in order to make the monospace frame the minimum usable height (different on laptops and desktops).
