24.2.50; Formating of completion candidates in the *Completions* buffer |
Date: |
Wed, 10 Oct 2012 21:45:09 +0200 |
severity: minor
Recipe from emacs -Q:
1. Maximize the Emacs (graphical) frame.
2. Type: M-x a u t o - <SPC> <SPC>
I observe that the first <SPC> creates a *Completions* buffer with the
completion candidates formatted in 3 columns, whereas the second <SPC>
reformat those candidates so that the full with of the window is used
(6 columns in my case).
Why the first <SPC> didn't use the full width of the window? I think it should.
