Hi,
for those of us using more recent versions of Emacs, the new
tab-bar-mode can be quite useful. As I have been playing with, I
thought it would make sense to have the option for agenda views to
pop-up in a new tab as an option. I've coded something that behaves in
a similar way to the 'other-frame option that currently exists for
org-agenda-window-setup.
Patch attached. Comments welcome, of course.
