Ah  one can navigate to a particular ijs file using jfile, when one
opens it, it opens into an ijs frame. Using the 'link' mechanism one
can mutate a frame to any frame type. One cannot create or destroy
frames from the browser (so far as i know) so the arrangement is set.
The main limitation to having a large number of frames to play with is
navigational overhead. Three frames is perhaps the best compromise -
as all frames are adjacent, though tabbing the menus becomes tiresome.
Jumping between windows/tabs is easier, and more context preserving.

>From what i can tell the JUM only provides a single ijx context.

Greg,

Your newer version looks good in the browser but is not really a good
alternative for me because when I refresh the jijs frame with Esc,J
(capital J) I just get a new tempn.ijs, not the file I selected in the
file menu. I think my solution worked better, with the jijs and jfile
using the same frame. [From the messages you attached below, I am not
sure you are replying to my message where I just replaced jijs with
jfile in your original.]
