Subject: 24.2.50;
	Formating of completion candidates in the *Completions* buffer
Date: Wed, 10 Oct 2012 21:45:09 +0200
severity: minor

Recipe from emacs -Q:
1. Maximize the Emacs (graphical) frame.
2. Type: M-x a u t o - <SPC> <SPC>

I observe that the first <SPC> creates a *Completions* buffer with the
completion candidates formatted in 3 columns, whereas the second <SPC>
reformat those candidates so that the full with of the window is used
(6 columns in my case).

Why the first <SPC> didn't use the full width of the window?  I think it should.
