(help-mode-map): Make button-buffer-map our parent. Don't bind mouse events or tab/backtab. (help-function, help-variable, help-face, help-coding-system) (help-input-method, help-character-set, help-back, help-info) (help-customize-variable, help-function-def, help-variable-def): New button types. (help-button-action): New function. (describe-function-1): Pass help button-types to `help-xref-button' rather than help function and help-echo string. Don't put multiple help-function args in a list to pass them to help-xref-button, just pass them as multiple arguments. Use `help-insert-xref-button' to make [back]-button, rather than `help-xref-button'. (help-xref-button): Take a button-type TYPE as a parameter rather than a function. Remove HELP-ECHO parameter. Remove DATA parameter and add a &rest parameter ARGS to serve the same purpose. Use `make-text-button' to add the button. (help-insert-xref-button): Use `insert-text-button' to add the button. (help-follow-mouse, help-next-ref, help-previous-ref): Functions removed. (help-do-xref): New function. (help-follow): Use `push-button' and `help-do-xref' to do most of the work.

If you think you may have found a bug in GNU Emacs, please
read the Bugs section of the Emacs manual for advice on
(1) how to tell when to report a bug, and
(2) how to write a useful bug report and what information
it needs to have.

There are three ways to read the Bugs section.

(1) In a printed copy of the Emacs manual.
You can order one from the Free Software Foundation;
see the file etc/ORDERS.  But if you don't have a copy on
hand and you think you have found a bug, you shouldn't wait
to get a printed manual; you should read the section right away
as described below.

(2) With Info.  Start Emacs, do C-h i to enter Info,
then m Emacs RET to get to the Emacs manual, then m Bugs RET
to get to the section on bugs.  Or use standalone Info in
a like manner.  (Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution,
not part of the Emacs distribution.)

(3) By hand.  Do
    cat info/emacs* | more "+/^File: emacs,  Node: Bugs,"

Please first check the file etc/PROBLEMS (e.g. with C-h P in Emacs) to
make sure it isn't a known issue.
