Variable: recenter-redisplay
recenter-redisplay is a customizable variable defined in window.c.
Value
tty
Documentation
Non-nil means recenter redraws entire frame.
If this option is non-nil, then the recenter command with a nil
argument will redraw the entire frame; the special value tty causes
the frame to be redrawn only if it is a tty frame.
This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 23.1.
Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 27.1.
