Re: Adding parameters to windows

I see you kept window-parameters around.  That's fine, but I'm curious
if there's a particular reason for it.  Has it proved more useful than
window-parameter in some circumtance?

You forgot about that one.

Extra space after colon, lack of capital afterwards and lack of closing ".".

Actually, nowhere is it enforced or even necessary for PARM to be
a symbol (which is a good thing).
Also better say PARAM than PARM.  We can afford the extra chars after
removing the comment about it being a symbol ;-)

Lack capitalization.  Don't bother saying "that modifies behaviour of
certain window operations": all the data in "struct window" has this
property, by its very nature.  This also has the added benefit of making
it fit within 80 columns.

We usually put this at the end of the last line of the comment rather
than on its own line.

Can someone fix up those things and commit this patch, please?
And add a note to etc/NEWS about it?
