61 | |
62 HELP-MODE is a mode's symbol. | |
63 REGEXP is a regular expression matching those help items whose | |
64 documentation can be looked up via DOC-SPEC. | |

66 DOC-SPEC is a list of documentation specifications of the form | |

68 (INFO-NODE TRANS-FUNC PREFIX SUFFIX) | |
69 | |
70 INFO-NODE is the name (including file name part) of an Info index. | |
71 TRANS-FUNC is a function translating index entries into help items; | |
72 nil means add only those index entries matching REGEXP, a string | |
73 means prepend string to the first word of all index entries. | |
74 PREFIX and SUFFIX are parts of a regular expression. If one of | |
75 them is non-nil then search the help item's Info node for the | |
76 first occurrence of the regular expression `PREFIX ITEM SUFFIX'. | |
77 ITEM will be highlighted with `info-lookup-highlight-face' if this | |
78 variable is not nil. | |
79 PARSE-RULE is either the symbol name of a function or a regular | |
80 expression for guessing the default help item at point. Fuzzy | |
81 regular expressions like \"[_a-zA-Z0-9]+\" do a better job if | |
82 there are no clear delimiters; do not try to write too complex | |
83 expressions. PARSE-RULE defaults to REGEXP. | |
84 OTHER-MODES is a list of cross references to other help modes.") | |
