If an error message or an informative - message is emitted while the minibuffer is active, the message hides - the minibuffer for a few seconds, or until you type something; then - the minibuffer comes back. While the minibuffer is in use, Emacs does - not echo keystrokes. + message is emitted while the minibuffer is active, the message is + displayed in brackets after the minibuffer text for a few seconds, or + until you type something; then the message disappears. While the + minibuffer is in use, Emacs does not echo keystrokes. +@vindex minibuffer-follows-selected-frame + While using the minibuffer, you can switch to a different frame, +perhaps to note text you need to enter (@pxref{Frame Commands}). By +default, the active minibuffer moves to this new frame. If you set +the user option @code{minibuffer-follows-selected-frame} to +@code{nil}, then the minibuffer stays in the frame where you opened +it, and you must switch back to that frame in order to complete (or +abort) the current command. If you set that option to a value which +is neither @code{nil} nor @code{t}, the minibuffer moves frame only +after a recursive minibuffer has been opened in the current command +(@pxref{Recursive Mini,,, elisp}). This option is mainly to retain +(approximately) the behavior prior to Emacs 28.1. Note that the +effect of the command, when you finally finish using the minibuffer, +always takes place in the frame where you first opened it. The sole +exception is that when that frame no longer exists, the action takes +place in the currently selected frame. + @node Minibuffer File @section Minibuffers for File Names
