Start emacsclient and only create a new frame if none exists. Otherwise reuse frame. Pass -nw to force console-emacs
#!/bin/bash -e
if [[ "$DISPLAY" ]]; then
frame=`emacsclient -a '' -e "(member \"$DISPLAY\" (mapcar 'terminal-name (frames-on-display-list)))" 2>/dev/null`
[[ "$frame" == "nil" ]] && opts='-c' # if there is no frame open create one
[[ "${@/#-nw/}" == "$@" ]] && opts="$opts -n" # don't wait unless we've asked to run in a terminal
else
opts='-nw'

My .emacs
"
This is my emacs configuration file. It's optimized to be used with emacs in
daemon mode, but should work without.
Tested and compatible with Emacs 25.3 and Emacs 26 on FreeBSD and several Linux
flavors. Note that display-line-numbers-mode REQUIRES Emacs 26+.
required elpa modules:

Compile cinnamon from git repo on Ubuntu 19.10

Compile cinnamon from GIT on Ubuntu 19.10 (or later)

Basically, it's straightforward, but one can run into minor issue. First, you need all the prerequisites for building debian packages like dpkg-dev, C compilers, the full set of autotools and more. While building, dpkg-buildpackage is verbose enough to indicate missing dependencies. Should that happen, apt install them and restart the build process.

Official instructions:

http://developer.linuxmint.com/reference/git/cinnamon-tutorials/building.html

Follow them step-by-step.
