(tty-create-frame-with-faces): Switch to the new frame during its setup. Load the customization library corresponding to the terminal type of the newly created frame. (Reported by Dan Nicolaescu <dann at ics dot uci dot edu>.) lisp/startup.el (normal-top-level): Moved background-mode heuristic to frame-set-background-mode. src/dispnew.c (init_display): Update the tty-type frame parameter of the initial terminal frame. src/frame.h (Qtty, Qtty_type): New externs. src/term.c (term_init): Update comments. git-archimport-id: [e-mail]--2004/emacs--multi-tty--0--patch-114
