Sorry for the late reply.

Yes, I invoked Emacs using -nw option. I am using cmder as my console.

I debugged it little further at my end after you I saw your reply.

I could see that the vertical dimension of my console did not really 
cause any problems.

However, as soon as I increase the horizontal dimensions of my console 
to 259 or more characters, I get this error.

Regards,

Dhruwat
