I'm still too silly to understand.  Should the initial frame have 53
rows (maybe 54 for the non-toolkit version) or should the subsequent
frames all have 50 rows?

I frequently asked on this list what `frame-height' and especially the
"number of lines available for display" stands for, but never got an
answer I could understand.
