Basically what the title says. Is this possible?
A:
There is a special function for this:
customize-group-other-window is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `cus-edit.el'.
(customize-group-other-window &optional GROUP)
Customize GROUP, which must be a customization group, in another window.

I know about that function. But clicking on customize in the menu runs `customize-group` not `customize-group-other-window`. I want `customize-group` to be an alias for `customize-group-other-window`

A:
Look at special-display-regexps
.
There are a couple options that might work:
Specify an entry like
(REGEXP FRAME-PARAMETERS)
with(same-frame . t)
. I don't know if this will necessarily use a different window (in contrast to(same-window . t)
).Specify an entry like
(REGEXP FUNCTION OTHER-ARGS)
where the FUNCTION argument iscustomize-group-other-window
. It's normally used with a new frame, so you might have to play with thespecial-display-function
too.
