Great, thanks.

Actually, I meant that you need to do this, as stated earlier (for the earlier
load files):

runemacs.exe -Q --debug-init -l "throw-one.el" -f "1on1-emacs"

IOW, I believe that you must invoke `1on1-emacs' from the command line this way,
so it is called before any frames are displayed.

Otherwise, you will end up with two minibuffers: the standalone minibuffer frame
will not function for some things; rather, the initial minibuffer (in a normal
frame) will be used.

At least that's what I see on Windows, and I expect that it is the case for you
too.  Please run Emacs this way for testing this, so we're on the same page.
