If capture is invoked from org-protocol in firefox, then there might not even be a emacs frame visible. 1) If I don't pass -c to emacsclient, then I need to search all my workspaces to find where emacs decided to put the capture frame 2) If I pass do pass -c to emacsclient, then I need to close the frame afterwards. And more significantly, I need to close the empty frame when I use store-link instead. (I could work around this by using seperate protocols for for each) Tom
