subprocess with a @code{SIGHUP} signal (@pxref{Signals to Processes}).
@end defun
+If the process's buffer is displayed in a window, your Lisp program
+may wish telling the process the dimensions of that window, so that
+the process could adapt its output to those dimensions, much as it
+adapts to the screen dimensions. The following functions allow to
+communicate this kind of information to processes; however, not all
+systems support the underlying functionality, so it is best to provide
+fallbacks, e.g., via command-line arguments or environment variables.
+
+@defun set-process-window-size process height width
+Tell @var{process} that its logical window size has dimensions
+@var{width} by @var{height}, in character units. If this function
+succeeds in communicating this information to the process, it returns
+@code{t}; otherwise it returns @code{nil}.
+@end defun
+
+When windows that display buffers associated with process change their
+dimensions, the affected processes should be told about these changes.
+By default, when the window configuration changes, Emacs will
+automatically call @code{set-process-window-size} on behalf of every
+process whose buffer is displayed in a window, passing it the smallest
+dimensions of all the windows displaying the process's buffer. This
+works via @code{window-configuration-change-hook} (@pxref{Window
+Hooks}), which is told to invoke the function that is the value of
+the variable @code{window-adjust-process-window-size-function} for
+each process whose buffer is displayed in at least one window. You
+can customize this behavior by setting the value of that variable.
+
+@defopt window-adjust-process-window-size-function
+The value of this variable should be a function of two arguments: a
+process and the list of windows displaying the process's buffer. When
+the function is called, the process's buffer is the current buffer.
+The function should return a cons cell @w{@code{(@var{width}
+. @var{height})}} that describes the dimensions of the logical process
+window to be passed via a call to @code{set-process-window-size}. The
+function can also return @code{nil}, in which case Emacs will not call
+@code{set-process-window-size} for this process.
+
+Emacs supplies two predefined values for this variable:
+@code{window-adjust-process-window-size-smallest}, which returns the
+smallest of all the dimensions of the windows that display a process's
+buffer; and @code{window-adjust-process-window-size-largest}, which
+returns the largest dimensions. For more complex strategies, write
+your own function.
+
+This variable can be buffer-local.
+@end defopt
+
+If the process has the @code{adjust-window-size-function} property
+(@pxref{Process Information}), its value overrides the global and
+buffer-local values of
+@code{window-adjust-process-window-size-function}.

@node Filter Functions

ignored. @code{ipv4} and @code{ipv6} specify to use IPv4 and IPv6,
respectively.
+@item :use-external-socket @var{use-external-socket}
+If @var{use-external-socket} is non-@code{nil} use any sockets passed
+to Emacs on invocation instead of allocating one. This is used by the
+Emacs server code to allow on-demand socket activation. If Emacs
+wasn't passed a socket, this option is silently ignored.
+
@item :local @var{local-address}
For a server process, @var{local-address} is the address to listen on.
It overrides @var{family}, @var{host} and @var{service}, so you
is the TLS type (which should either be @code{gnutls-x509pki} or
@code{gnutls-anon}, and the remaining elements should form a keyword
list acceptable for @code{gnutls-boot}. (This keyword list can be
-optained from the @code{gnutls-boot-parameters} function.) The TLS
+obtained from the @code{gnutls-boot-parameters} function.) The TLS
connection will then be negotiated after completing the connection to
the host.
