Frame Parameters
================

   A frame has many parameters that control its appearance and behavior.
Just what parameters a frame has depends on what display mechanism it
uses.

   Frame parameters exist mostly for the sake of window systems.  A
terminal frame has a few parameters, mostly for compatibility's sake;
only the `height', `width', `name', `title', `menu-bar-lines',
`buffer-list' and `buffer-predicate' parameters do something special.
If the terminal supports colors, the parameters `foreground-color',
`background-color', `background-mode' and `display-type' are also
meaningful.
