I used my setting for the buffer *apropos*, so customize to your liking.

(setq special-display-buffer-names
      '(("*Calendar*"
         (top . 5)
         (left . -75)
         (width . 80)
         (height . 50)
         (menu-bar-lines . 0)
         (font . "-outline-Courier 
New-normal-r-normal-normal-13-97-96-96-c-*-iso8859-15")
         (foreground-color . "black")
         (background-color . "light steel blue"))))

I love this special-display-buffer-names.  Buffers by the names, 

*info* *Help* *Apropos* *Backtrace* *Input History* *Occur*
*grep* *Colors* *Shell Command Output* *compilation*

all show up in their own frames with each frame customized to my liking.
Very slick functionality IMO.
