Precisely how @code{display-buffer} finds or creates a window depends on
the variables described below.
@end deffn

@defun split-window-preferred-function window
This variable specifies how to split a window.  Its value, if
non-@code{nil}, should be a function of one argument, which is a
window.  If this variable specifies a function, @code{display-buffer}
will call it with one or more candidate windows when it looks for a
window to split.  If the argument @var{window} fits, the function is
expected to split it and return a new window.  If the function returns
@code{nil}, then @var{window} will not be split.

@defopt display-buffer-reuse-frames
If this variable is non-@code{nil}, @code{display-buffer} searches
existing frames for a window displaying the buffer.  If the buffer is
already displayed in a window in some frame, @code{display-buffer} makes

window to split.
