Setting these variables does not immediately affect the window. These
variables are checked when a new buffer is displayed in the window.
Thus, you can make changes take effect by calling
@code{set-window-buffer}.
@code{set-window-buffer}. Do not use these variables to try to
determine the current width of the left or right margin. Instead, use
the function @code{window-margins}.
You can also set the margin widths immediately.
