Use the source, Luke!
This sounds like the thing you should examine:
;;; Automatic resizing of temporary buffers.
(defcustom temp-buffer-max-height
(lambda (buffer)
(if (and (display-graphic-p) (eq (selected-window) (frame-root-window)))
(/ (x-display-pixel-height) (frame-char-height) 2)
(/ (- (frame-height) 2) 2)))
"Maximum height of a window displaying a temporary buffer.
This is effective only when Temp Buffer Resize mode is enabled.
The value is the maximum height (in lines) which
`resize-temp-buffer-window' will give to a window displaying a
temporary buffer. It can also be a function to be called to
choose the height for such a buffer. It gets one argument, the
buffer, and should return a positive integer. At the time the
function is called, the window to be resized is selected."
:type '(choice integer function)
:group 'help
:version "24.3")
From: line 1077 @ /usr/share/emacs/25.1/lisp/help.el.gz
If you don't have the source on a Debian or
Debian-like system, get it with the
"emacs-el" package.
...
Wait - *I* don't have that package installed!
"State: not installed" Yet I have the source?!
How did that happen? :O
