emacs -Q
 
M-: (modify-frame-parameters nil '((fullscreen . fullboth)))
 
The frame is not wide enough - about a centimeter too narrow.
 
M-: (modify-frame-parameters nil '((fullscreen . maximized)))
 
This does maximize the frame.
 
However, the Elisp manual, node `Size Parameters', is incorrect in
saying that either `maximized' or `fullboth' does not have
window-manager decorations.
 
Beyond that, I suspect that the text is anyway mistaken wrt the order,
and that what was meant was that `fullboth', not `maximized, still has
decorations.  Dunno about that, however.
