This function returns the position of the end of the display in window
@var{window}.  If @var{window} is @code{nil}, the selected window is
used.

If the last redisplay of @var{window} was preempted, and did not finish,
Emacs does not know the position of the end of display in that window;
in that case, this function returns @code{nil}.  You can compute where
the end of the window @emph{would} have been, if redisplay had finished,
like this:

@example

  (goto-char (window-start window))
  (vertical-motion (1- (window-height window))
                   window)
  (point))
@end example
@end defun

@defun set-window-start window position &optional noforce
This function sets the display-start position of @var{window} to
@var{position} in @var{window}'s buffer.  It returns @var{position}.

If the last redisplay of @var{window} was preempted, and did not finish,
Emacs does not know the position of the end of display in that window.
In that case, this function returns a value that is not correct.  In a
future version, @code{window-end} will return @code{nil} in that case.
