automatically if the contents require more space. Whilst it is
active, you can explicitly resize it temporarily with the window
sizing commands; it reverts to its normal size when the minibuffer is
exited. When the minibuffer is not active, you can resize it
permanently by using the window sizing commands in the frame's other
window, when the minibuffer is not active. If the frame contains just
a minibuffer, you can change the minibuffer's size by changing the
frame's size.

must be @code{nil}.) If the frame contains just a minibuffer, you can
change the minibuffer's size by changing the frame's size.
Use of the minibuffer reads input events, and that alters the values
of variables such as @code{this-command} and @code{last-command}
