commit 989d0afce9701fb3409f5d53f0e47460be709e0e
Author: Eli Zaretskii <address@hidden>
Commit: Eli Zaretskii <address@hidden>
Improve documentation of mini-window resizing
* doc/lispref/minibuf.texi (Minibuffer Windows): Mention
'message-truncate-lines' for preventing resizing of minibuffer
windows. (Bug#19045)
(Minibuffer Misc): Remove redundant description of
'max-mini-window-height'.
* doc/lispref/display.texi (Echo Area Customization): Adjust
cross-reference.
