I mentioned this anomoly in a recent response to Irwin Poche's contribution
about resizing OE message windows, but thought it was worth a thread of its
own.
When the bounds of the Finder's desktop window are asked for in a script, I
would have expected the last two items in the list of four numbers that is
generated to be the same as the two numbers returned when asking for the
desktop window's size. But no. When the size is got, the height of the menu
bar is subtracted from the figure for overall height. Why?
