;;; Commentary:

;; This package allows the entire contents (or as much as possible) of the
;; minibuffer to be visible at once when typing.  As the end of a line is
;; reached, the minibuffer will resize itself.  When the user is done
;; typing, the minibuffer will return to its original size.

;; In window systems where it is possible to have a frame in which the
;; minibuffer is the only window, the frame itself can be resized.  In FSF
;; GNU Emacs 19.22 and earlier, the frame may not be properly returned to
;; its original size after it ceases to be active because
;; `minibuffer-exit-hook' didn't exist until version 19.23.
;;
;; Prior to Emacs 19.26, minibuffer-exit-hook wasn't called after exiting
;; from the minibuffer by hitting the quit char.  That meant that the
;; frame size restoration function wasn't being called in that case.  In
;; 19.26 or later, minibuffer-exit-hook should be called anyway.

;; Note that the minibuffer and echo area are not the same!  They simply
;; happen to occupy roughly the same place on the frame.  Messages put in
;; the echo area will not cause any resizing by this package.

;; This package is considered a minor mode but it doesn't put anything in
;; minor-mode-alist because this mode is specific to the minibuffer, which
;; has no mode line.

;; To enable or disable this mode, use M-x resize-minibuffer-mode.

;;; Code:


;;;###autoload
(defvar resize-minibuffer-mode nil
  "*If non-`nil', resize the minibuffer so its entire contents are visible.")

;;;###autoload
(defvar resize-minibuffer-window-max-height nil
  "*Maximum size the minibuffer window is allowed to become.
If less than 1 or not a number, the limit is the height of the frame in
which the active minibuffer window resides.")

;;;###autoload
(defvar resize-minibuffer-window-exactly t
  "*Allow making minibuffer exactly the size to display all its contents.
If `nil', the minibuffer window can temporarily increase in size but
never get smaller while it is active.  Any other value allows exact
resizing.")

;;;###autoload
(defvar resize-minibuffer-frame nil
  "*Allow changing the frame height of minibuffer frames.
If non-`nil' and the active minibuffer is the sole window in its frame,
allow changing the frame height.")

;;;###autoload
(defvar resize-minibuffer-frame-max-height nil
  "*Maximum size the minibuffer frame is allowed to become.
If less than 1 or not a number, there is no limit.")

;;;###autoload

  "*Allow making minibuffer frame exactly the size to display all its contents.
If `nil', the minibuffer frame can temporarily increase in size but
never get smaller while it is active.  Any other value allows exact
resizing.")

;; Variable used to store the height of the minibuffer frame
;; on entry, so it can be restored on exit.  It is made local before it is
;; modified.  Do not use it yourself.

;;;###autoload
(defun resize-minibuffer-mode (&optional prefix)
  "Enable or disable resize-minibuffer mode.
A negative prefix argument disables this mode.  A positive argument or
argument of 0 enables it.

When this minor mode is enabled, the minibuffer is dynamically resized to
contain the entire region of text put in it as you type.

The variable `resize-minibuffer-mode' is set to t or nil depending on
whether this mode is active or not.

The maximum height to which the minibuffer can grow is controlled by the
variable `resize-minibuffer-window-max-height'.

The variable `resize-minibuffer-window-exactly' determines whether the
minibuffer window should ever be shrunk to make it no larger than needed to
display its contents.

When using a window system, it is possible for a minibuffer to be the sole
window in a frame.  Since that window is already its maximum size, the only
way to make more text visible at once is to increase the size of the frame.
The variable `resize-minibuffer-frame' controls whether this should be
done.  The variables `resize-minibuffer-frame-max-height' and
`resize-minibuffer-frame-exactly' are analogous to their window
counterparts."
