A minibuffer is a special buffer that Emacs commands use to read arguments more
complicated than the single numeric prefix argument. These arguments include file
names, buffer names, and command names (as in M-x). The minibuffer is displayed on
the bottom line of the frame, in the same place as the echo area, but only while it is
in use for reading an argument.
