This changes initial frame size, at least on Windows.

 emacs-23\bin\emacs -q   => frame-height = 35
 trunk\bin\emacs -q   => frame-height = 38

which is a PITA because I have "Emacs.Geometry = 100x65" in the
registry (65 being the height for a maximized Emacs frame on my
system). With that setting, Emacs 23.X works right, but trunk Emacs
extends under the taskbar.

I'm confused.  Before and after Chong's change these are 38 here.
But I have an older build where (frame-height) evaluates to 43.

I haven't followed this and cannot check the new effect.  But I hope this does
not mean that a user's customizations of, say, `default-frame-alist' will no
longer be respected wrt `menu-bar-lines' and `tool-bar-lines'.

When you say "use X resources", do you mean that Emacs now sets X resources or
only that users can use X resources to set these parameters? (You say "use X
resources" the same way you say "don't add entries", so it's unclear what the
subject of the sentence is: Emacs code or the user.)

---

FWIW: Over the past few major releases there has been considerable fiddling with
initial menu-bar and tool-bar settings and how they're established. I hope this
will settle down and reach a fixed point. ;-)  As an example, I have code that
fits the frame to a buffer, and it has to calculate the frame height differently
for different Emacs versions, because of the different treatment of these
parameters.

On Windows?

In any case, the patch has changed the behavior for me; i.e., it's not
emacs-23 vs. trunk, but trunk-from-yesterday vs. trunk-from-today.

Not so here.

Oh, I see.

emacs -q does not ignore the registry settings, and I have

Emacs.ScrollBars = off
Emacs.Toolbar = 0

What has really changed is that now "Emacs.Toolbar = 0" does not work,
it is necessary to use "Emacs.Toolbar = off".

Should be fixed now, thanks.

See my mail from today, subject "tool bars - broken again".

I suspect that the change Yidong describes is in fact what broke things.

[The breakage is not what I feared it might be (size of tool-bar lines or
non-respect of `default-frames-alist').  Instead, it seems that turning off
`tool-bar-mode' does not set `tool-bar-lines' to 0 for `default-frame-alist'.]
