Subject: 24.4.90; window-body-height, window-body-width wrong value after
 text-scale-adjust
Date: Sat, 07 Mar 2015 00:31:53 +0200

After text-scale-adjust [C-x C-] window-height and window-width return
the old (original) value.

The doc says:

 This function returns the height, in lines, of the body of window
 WINDOW.

So at least the docs are imprecise or incomplete.

Relatedly, there seems to be no way to determine the height/width of a
character in pixels after rescaling. `frame-char-width` returns the
original size.


Thanks, 

  Vitalie
