Thanks a lot for these ideas. I use emacs since about 20 years.
Today I changed the way I start emacs:

(defcommand emacs () ()
  "run emacs"
  (run-or-raise "zsh -ic 'emacsclient -c -a \"\"'" '(:instance "^emacs$")))

Up to now I used:
;; (defcommand emacs () ()
;;   "run emacs"
;;   (run-or-raise "emacs -T emacs" '(:instance "^emacs$")))


I use zsh. My new command starts an emacs daemon that is initialized
with my zsh setup. run-or-raise is used to switch to an already
available emacs frame when available.

Just wanted to share my cool new setup.

Stefan.
