9.12: in tabbedex's on_start(), width = 560, height = 312
in the first call to on_resize_all_windows(),
the args are 560 and 303
and self->{term}->width = 560 and self->{term}->height = 303
and self->width is 560, self->height is 303
9.14: in tabbedex's on_start(), width = 560, height = 312
in the first call to on_resize_all_windows(),
the args are 555 and 303
and self->{term}->width = 553 and self->{term}->height = 299
and self->width is 553, self->height is 299
As you see, there are differences in the height and width.
The font I'm using above is 7x13, and with a 80x24 terminal the
"sensible" numbers for the part of the window where the text is
displayed (ignoring borders, scrollbars, yada yada yada) is 560 x 312,
just like both of them start with.
In the first call to on_resize_all_windows(), even though I start with
a hidden scrollbar, the height argument has lost 9 pixels (fheight +
border size??). I have no hypothesis yet for where the other pixels
go in 9.14, but if someone wants to tell me, that would be great.
(For my own purposes I can kludge up some numbers that work for me,
but it would be nicer if I could write some code that would work for
everyone.)
Cheers.
Jim
