Re: [External] : programmatically make window full length but not change width |

For most of my computers, I can use a default value of 60, but on one of my
computers, I need 175. So I've put this code in my .emacs file (after
loading the two frame- libraries). On my one computer, I have an
environment variable that it reads. This seems to do the trick! Thanks
for the help, Drew!
(setq window-mgr-title-bar-pixel-height
(string-to-number
(or (getenv "emacs-window-mgr-title-bar-pixel-height") "60")))
