Different `C-x 4' commands have different ways of finding the buffer to select. `C-x 4 b BUFNAME <RET>' Select buffer BUFNAME in another window. This runs `switch-to-buffer-other-window'. `C-x 4 C-o BUFNAME <RET>' Display buffer BUFNAME in another window, but don't select that buffer or that window. This runs `display-buffer'. `C-x 4 f FILENAME <RET>' Visit file FILENAME and select its buffer in another window. This runs `find-file-other-window'. Note: Visiting. `C-x 4 d DIRECTORY <RET>' Select a Dired buffer for directory DIRECTORY in another window. This runs `dired-other-window'. Note: Dired. `C-x 4 m' Start composing a mail message in another window. This runs `mail-other-window'; its same-window analogue is `C-x m' (Note: Sending Mail). `C-x 4 .'
