Subject: bug#79164: frame position not updated correctly when resizing from left edge on macOS
Date: Tue, 5 Aug 2025 20:20:16 +0900

Thank you for the reference.

Yes, I also noticed that Yamamoto-san’s `emacs-mac` port uses similar 
approaches
 to track window movement and resizing accurately on macOS.
 That gave me more confidence that this patch’s use of `windowDidMove` and
 `windowDidEndLiveResize` to update frame geometry is consistent with 
well-tested practice.

My patch aims to integrate such behavior into upstream Emacs so that 
even the standard
Cocoa build reports accurate frame positions during edge-resize 
operations—especially
for use cases relying on `move-frame-functions`.

Best regards,
Dr.Sc.KAWAMOTO, Takuji
