    Frames are the outer-most container for windows. I may be wrong on this, but there is 1 frame per instance of emacs, or emacs-client

      Now I’m curious whether the emacs concept of frames is older than the desktop environment concept of a window… And what exactly a new frame means in a tui environment. I make new frames all the time, but I’m usually in a GUI environment.
