-;; C-x 7 <command> causes a buffer displayed by <command>
-;; to appear in another window in the same frame; a window
+;; other-frame-window provides prefix key sequences to control where a
+;; new buffer is created by a subsequent command. With no prefix, the
+;; buffer is created where the command decides (nominally the currently
+;; selected window). Prefix C-x 7 causes the buffer to appear in
+;; another window in the same frame; a window is created if necessary.
+;; Prefix C-x 9 causes the buffer to appear in another frame; a frame
;; is created if necessary.
;;
-;; C-x 9 <command> causes a buffer displayed by <command>
-;; to appear in another frame; a frame is created if necessary.
+;; Some commands display new buffers in other than the currently
+;; selected window, which defeats the purpose of ‘other-frame-window’ in
+;; the absense of a prefix. To override that, customize
+;; ‘display-buffer-alist’ for those commands. For example, to override
+;; ‘gud-gdb’:
+;;
+;; (add-to-list
+;; 'display-buffer-alist
+;; (cons "\\*gud"
+;; (cons 'display-buffer-same-window nil)))
+;; )
+;;
+;; Other key bindings provided by other-frame-window:
;;
;; C-x W moves the current buffer to another window in the same frame.
;;
;; C-x F moves the current buffer to another frame.
;;
+;;
;; In addition, C-x 7 and C-x 9 can be followed by these keys:
;;
;; 0 - deletes the current window.
