annotate lisp/apropos.el @ 46205:6676ac71682b

Update mouse button info. Don't give the names of Emacs commands that the characters run. Clarify what SPC and DEL do. Clarify the description of the minibuffer. Wording change for completion. Explain Mouse-2 better.

;;; Commentary:

;; The ideas for this package were derived from the C code in
;; src/keymap.c and elsewhere.  The functions in this file should
;; always be byte-compiled for speed.  Someone should rewrite this in
;; C (as part of src/keymap.c) for speed.

;; The idea for super-apropos is based on the original implementation
;; by Lynn Slater <[e-mail]>.

;; History:
;; Fixed bug, current-local-map can return nil.
;; Change, doesn't calculate key-bindings unless needed.
;; Added super-apropos capability, changed print functions.
;;; Made fast-apropos and super-apropos share code.
;;; Sped up fast-apropos again.
;; Added apropos-do-all option.
;;; Added fast-command-apropos.
;; Changed doc strings to comments for helping functions.
;;; Made doc file buffer read-only, buried it.
;; Only call substitute-command-keys if do-all set.

;; Optionally use configurable faces to make the output more legible.
;; Differentiate between command, function and macro.
;; Apropos-command (ex command-apropos) does cmd and optionally user var.
;; Apropos shows all 3 aspects of symbols (fn, var and plist)
;; Apropos-documentation (ex super-apropos) now finds all it should.
;; New apropos-value snoops through all values and optionally plists.
;; Reading DOC file doesn't load nroff.
;; Added hypertext following of documentation, mouse-2 on variable gives value
;;   from buffer in active window.
