Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
emacs -Q
C-x 3
M-x set-variable RET truncate-partial-width-windows RET 30 RET
Now type "C-x }" in the left window until the right window starts
truncating its lines on the display. When that happens, count the
number of columns in the right window. I get 25, whereas the expected
value is 29, or at least 27, if someone wants to argue that the fringe
counts.
It may be that the width of the scroll bar counts as well, but in that
case this should be reflected in the doc string.
The above is in a GUI session. On a TTY, I do get 29 characters, but
only if I count the truncation glyph as well.
If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
`bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
d:/usr/emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.

I just tested, and can confirm that this is still a problem in Emacs 25.

Thanks for reminding this issue to me. I fixed the doc string and the
related description in the user manual, and I'm marking this bug as
(finally) done.
