All kinds of stuff has been stuffed under the `Frames' node - stuff that
has nothing particular to do with frames. This stuff should be placed
elsewhere.
Examples:
Mouse Tracking - maybe put it with other mouse stuff
Mouse Position - " "
Pop-Up Menus - put it with other menu stuff
It has nothing to do with frames, apart from the fact
that the implementation might involve frames.
Dialog Boxes - maybe put it with menu or `interactive' stuff
Again, it has nothing to do with frames apart from
implementation.
Pointer Shape - put it with other mouse stuff
Window System Selections - put it with selection/region stuff
Drag and Drop - put it with copy/paste stuff
Color Names - again, has nothing to do with frames
Text Terminal Colors - ditto
Resources - resources can be anything, not just frame parameters
Display Feature Testing - similar to resources - this is about
display/system properties, not about Emacs frames
This is a terrible mess. It confuses users wrt what Emacs frames are
all about. You might just as well stuff all this stuff in the section
about Emacs faces or the region - that makes about as much sense (none).
