The text is from the Elisp manual and I hinted at it because I thought there was a frame parameter for controlling dedicatedness. I was wrong - there is no such parameter. You rather have to set the variable ‘display-buffer-mark-dedicated’ to non-nil or bind it around the ‘display-buffer’ call. That's very ugly. I think we should provide an alist entry like the `reusable-frames' one to control the dedicateness of the window used. martin
