+If FRAME is omitted, the selected frame is used. The exact value

+
+In the Gtk+ version of Emacs, it includes only any window (including
+the minibuffer or eacho area), mode line, and header line. It does not
+include the tool bar or menu bar.
+
+With the Motif or Lucid toolkits, it also includes the tool bar (but
+not the menu bar).
+
+In a graphical version with no toolkit, it includes both the tool bar
+and menu bar.
+
+For a text-only terminal, it includes the menu bar. In this case, the
+result is really in characters rather than pixels (i.e., is identical
+to `frame-height'). */)
