And my view is that width and height should refer to available text area when specified in the units of characters, and that it should refer to the complete area inclusive of fringe, scroll bar, menu bar and toolbar when specified in the unit of pixels. And actually, I want my Emacs windows typically to be 80 characters wide and about 740 pixels tall. And when I change the font size, I still want them 80 characters wide and 740 pixels tall. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum
