Documentation

Maximum height for resizing mini-windows (the minibuffer and the echo area).

If a float, it specifies the maximum height in units of the mini-window frame's height. If an integer, it specifies the maximum height in units of the mini-window frame's default font's height.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 23.1.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 21.1.
