How does this handle multiple displays?

  I cannot do a definitive test because I only ever use one monitor at a time, but since (set-frame-parameter nil 'fullscreen 'maximized) does not make use of the fullscreen mode introduced by Apple with Lion, it will almost certainly not suffer from the most-complained-about problem with multiple monitors on OS X. In contrast, (set-frame-parameter nil 'fullscreen 'fullboth) does make use of Lion's fullscreen mode -- and it gets rid of the menu bar and the Dock, letting the Emacs frame occupy every screen pixel. But then at least on Lion and Mountain Lion (which is the extent of my experience with recent versions of OS X) multi-monitor support is hosed IIUC.

    Looks like both these invocations use the screen the Emacs frame is on.

    Full screen mode works great with multiple monitors on Mavericks. I vastly prefer it to traditional maximizing.
