(coordinates_in_window): Handle computations for positions on the vertical bar and fringes differently for window-system frames. Consider some pixels near the vertical bar as on the bar if the frame doesn't have vertical scroll bars. Associate positions between mode or header lines with the right window, the left one.

30 The file `configure' is a shell script to acclimate Emacs to the

32 `Makefile' (a script for the `make' program), which automates the

36 The file `configure.in' is the input used by the autoconf program to
Dave Love <fx@gnu.org>
parents:
diff changeset
37 construct the `configure' script. Since Emacs has configuration
Dave Love <fx@gnu.org>
parents:
diff changeset
38 requirements that autoconf can't meet, `configure.in' uses an unholy
Dave Love <fx@gnu.org>
parents:
diff changeset
39 marriage of custom-baked configuration code and autoconf macros; it
Dave Love <fx@gnu.org>
parents:
diff changeset
40 may be wise to avoid rebuilding `configure' from `configure.in' when
