+XEmacs Mode Lines
+=================
+
+ When used in a windowing system, the XEmacs modelines can be dragged
+vertically. The effect is to resize the windows above and below the
+modeline (this includes the minibuffer window).
+
+ Additionally, a modeline can be dragged horizontally, in which case
+it scrolls its own text. This behavior is not enabled by default
+because it could be considered as disturbing when dragging vertically.
+When this behavior is enabled, the modeline's text can be dragged
+either in the same direction as the mouse, or in the opposite sense,
+making the modeline act as a scrollbar for its own text.
+
+ You can select the behavior you want from the `Display' submenu of
+the `Options' menu.
