Perhaps I didn't explain myself properly. I meant to imply that when you open up a file (either new or an existing one), and you wish to open up a new window or "frame" (as I was under the impression that that is what Emacs call windows)for that file, you can enter either C-x 5 2 or M-x "make frame." Let me know if this makes sense. Thanks.
No. C-x 5 2 would create a new "window tool" – a "frame" in GNU Emacs terminology – which can have a few windows or buffers/buffer views open. What you want to use is C-x 2: split-window-vertically. Above and below another separating mode-line you would see the same file and buffer contents but would be able to scroll independently, i.e. you would have two different views onto the same object.
