*Python Output* window-height

*Python Output* window-height

[Rares Vernica]

Hi,

I am trying to set a default height for the *Python Output* buffer.

Right now it takes half of my current frame. I would like it to take less.

I tried this:
(add-to-list 'special-display-buffer-names
              '("*Python Output*" (height . 5) (same-frame . t)))

But the buffer still takes half of the current frame.

If I remove (same-frame . t), it will open a new frame, but the hight of 
the new frame is 5.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Ray

There are more such output containing buffers, and all waste half of  
the frame! There should be an easy way to reduce their usually  
ridiculous height.

Waiting for some general solution, you could always press `C-x -' in
the ouput buffer:

,----[ shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer ]
| Command: Shrink the WINDOW to be as small as possible to display its
| contents.
