+ When displaying completions, Emacs will normally pop up a new buffer
+to display the completions. The completions will (by default) be
+sorted in columns horizontally in alphabetical order, but this can be
+changed by changing the @code{completions-format} user option. If
+@code{vertical}, sort the completions vertically in columns instead,
+and if @code{one-column}, just use a single column.
