 @chapter Frames
 @cindex frame
 
-  In Emacs editing, a @dfn{frame} is a screen object that contains one
-or more Emacs windows, see @ref{Windows}.  It's the kind of object that
-is called a ``window'' in the terminology of graphical environments; but
-we can't call it a ``window'' here, because Emacs uses that word in a
-different way.  In Emacs Lisp, a @dfn{frame object} is a Lisp object
-that represents a frame on the screen.  @xref{Frame Type}.
+  A @dfn{frame} is a screen object that contains one or more Emacs
+windows (@pxref{Windows}).  It is the kind of object called a

+call it a ``window'' here, because Emacs uses that word in a different
+way.  In Emacs Lisp, a @dfn{frame object} is a Lisp object that
+represents a frame on the screen.  @xref{Frame Type}.
 
   A frame initially contains a single main window and/or a minibuffer
 window; you can subdivide the main window vertically or horizontally
 into smaller windows.  @xref{Splitting Windows}.
 
address@hidden terminal
   A @dfn{terminal} is a display device capable of displaying one or
-more Emacs frames.  On GNU and Unix systems, Emacs supports any number
-of different terminals in one session, and can mix GUI and text-only
-frames in the same session.
-
-  Emacs represents each terminal on which it displays frames as a
-special @dfn{terminal object} data type, see @ref{Terminal Type}.
+more Emacs frames.  In Emacs Lisp, a @dfn{terminal object} is a Lisp
+object that represents a terminal.  @xref{Terminal Type}.
 
 @cindex terminal frame
-  When Emacs runs on a text-only terminal, it starts with one
address@hidden frame}.  If you create additional frames on the same
-terminal, Emacs displays one and only one at any given time---on that
-terminal screen, of course.  You can create additional frames, either
-text-only or GUI, on other terminals from the same Emacs session.
-(This comes in handy when you connect to the same session from several
-remote locations.)  @xref{Multiple Terminals}.
-
 @cindex window frame
-  When Emacs communicates directly with a supported window system, such
-as X, it does not have a terminal frame; instead, it starts with
-a single @dfn{window frame}, but you can create more, and Emacs can
-display several such frames at once as is usual for window systems.
+  There are two classes of terminals: text-only terminals and
+graphical terminals.  Text-only terminals are non-graphics-capable
+display devices, including ``terminal emulators'' such as xterm.  On
+text-only terminals, each frame occupies the entire terminal screen;
+although you can create additional frames and switch between them,
+only one frame can be shown at any given time.  We refer to frames on
+text-only terminals as @dfn{terminal frames}.  Graphical terminals, on
+the other hand, are graphics-capable windowing systems, such as the X
+Window System.  On a graphical terminal, Emacs can display multiple
+frames simultaneously.  We refer to such frames as @dfn{window
+frames}.
+
+  On GNU and Unix systems, you can create additional frames on any
+available terminal, within a single Emacs session, regardless of
+whether Emacs was started on a text-only or graphical terminal.  Emacs
+can display on both graphical and text-only terminals simultaneously.
+This comes in handy, for instance, when you connect to the same
+session from several remote locations.  @xref{Multiple Terminals}.

address@hidden terminal-local variables
   A few Lisp variables are @dfn{terminal-local}; that is, they have a
 separate binding for each terminal.  The binding in effect at any time

 to.  These variables include @code{default-minibuffer-frame},

-  A single X server can handle more than one screen.  A display name
address@hidden@var{host}:@address@hidden has three parts; the last
-part specifies the screen number for a given server.  When you use two
-screens belonging to one server, Emacs knows by the similarity in their
-names that they share a single keyboard, and it treats them as a single
-terminal.
-
-  Note that some graphical terminals can output to more than a one
-monitor (or other output device) at the same time.  On these
-``multi-monitor'' setups, a single @var{display} value controls the
-output to all the physical monitors.  In this situation, there is
-currently no platform-independent way for Emacs to distinguish between
-the different physical monitors.
+  On GNU and Unix systems, each X display is a separate graphical
+terminal.  When Emacs is started from within the X window system, it
+uses the X display chosen with the @code{DISPLAY} environment
+variable, or with the @samp{--display} option.  @xref{Initial
+Options,,, emacs, The GNU Emacs Manual}.  Emacs can connect to other X
+displays via the command @code{make-frame-on-display}.  Each X display
+has its own selected frame and its own minibuffer windows; however,
+only one of those frames is address@hidden selected frame'' at any given
+moment (@pxref{Input Focus}).  Emacs can even connect to other
+text-only terminals, by interacting with the @command{emacsclient}
+program.  @xref{Emacs Server,,, emacs, The GNU Emacs Manual}.
+
+  A single X server can handle more than one display.  Each X display
+has a three-part name, @address@hidden:@address@hidden
+The first two parts, @var{host} and @var{server}, identify the X
+server; the third part, @var{screen}, identifies a screen number on
+that X server.  When you use two or more screens belonging to one
+server, Emacs knows by the similarity in their names that they share a
+single keyboard.
+
+  On some ``multi-monitor'' setups, a single X display outputs to more
+than one monitor.  Currently, there is no way for Emacs to distinguish
+between the different physical monitors.
