annotate lisp/=timer.el @ 1875:f569bc4e9b8f

* xterm.c (x_set_window_size): Call change_frame_size instead of just setting the `rows' and `cols' members of the frame, and leaving the window tree in complete disarray. * xterm.c (x_io_error_quitter): New function. (x_error_quitter): Note that this is only used for protocol errors now, not I/O errors. (x_term_init): Set the I/O error handler to x_io_error_quitter.
