cool, somebody how knows the _source_ code of emacs! (admirational
face...) 

do you additionally (off topic for this thread) know where emacs
gathers/provides the information for the left/top-postion of frames?

i'd like to look at that for the mac osx/aqua version of emacs. - see article
"definitely an aqua/carbon issue (was Re: function `frame-parameters' on
mac osx)" in this newsgroups.
