(frame-parameter (selected-frame) 'height) also returns the same number also even though one frame contains visibly different number of lines (although the frame height in centimeters would be the same). When I try S-mouse-1 (mouse-set-font), the actual font does not change, even though the frame size does. I am confused - have anyone seen anything like that? what could be the cause? -- Sam Steingold (http://www.podval.org/~sds) running RedHat9 GNU/Linux Hard work has a future payoff.
