I can switch between windows with "C-x o", but if I have opened multiple frames, can I move between them without the mouse as well?
I just realized that the question probably sounds braindead without this detail: I'm on Mac OS X (Finnish keyboard) and switching between windows of the same application is difficult.
Emacs opens a new frame on dickens . If you type C-x b to move to another buffer, the name at the top of the frame changes to the new buffer's name (and on Linux, it shows the path as well). To move to a buffer and put it in a new frame, type C-x 5 b. You might have guessed that one.
To select a different window, click with Mouse-1 on its mode line. With the keyboard, you can switch windows by typing C-x o ( other-window ).
Typing C-x C-c closes all the frames on the current display, and ends the Emacs session if it has no frames open on any other displays (see Exiting Emacs). To close just the selected frame, type C-x 5 0 (that is zero, not o ).
If you want an Emacs-centric method, try C-x 5 o.
