This is fairly easy: ```emacs-lisp -(setq display-buffer-alist - '((".*" - (display-buffer-reuse-window display-buffer-same-window) - (reusable-frames . t)))) +(customize-set-variable 'display-buffer-base-action + '((display-buffer-reuse-window display-buffer-same-window) + (reusable-frames . t))) -(setq even-window-sizes nil) ; display-buffer hint: avoid resizing +(customize-set-variable 'even-window-sizes nil) ; avoid resizing ``` +(An earlier version of this hint modified `display-buffer-alist` instead of +`display-buffer-base-action`.
