    Today's GNU Emacs CVS snapshot, Fri, 2007 Dec 28  11:02 UTC

martin rudalics said,

    What I wanted to express above is that my initial Emacs frame has
    the same height regardless of whether I have toolbars enabled or
    not.

That is a different issue than RMS was dealing  with.  As far as I
understand, he was concerned with the number of lines of text.

Toolbars on my system take up two lines and the heights of an Emacs
instance in X, the first frame, changes, although at the moment the
number of text lines stay the same regardless whether I evaluate

    (tool-bar-mode 0)
or
    (tool-bar-mode 1)

(As I said earlier, the height of the first frame changes.)

I like it that the number of lines of text stays the same.
