frame1: 1) Open a file in fundamental mode, text mode will probably work.

I do not have to switch focus back to frame1. Both windows and
solaris 2.4.11 versions act this way for me.
This behavior surprised me the first time I ran into it. I'm not
suggesting that it be fixed, in fact, the fix might be more
surprising.
