(help-mode): Use define-derived-mode. (describe-mode): Add optional `buffer' arg. Use it instead of going through help-xref-mode. Avoid doubling the word `minor' when prettifying. (describe-function-1): List the corresponding key bindings. (describe-variable): Say if the var is automatically buffer-local. If the source is `loaddefs.el', look for the real source. (help-xref-mode): Remove.

This directory contains source code for the parts of Emacs that are
written in Emacs Lisp.  *.el files are Emacs Lisp source, and the
corresponding *.elc files are byte-compiled versions.  Byte-compiled
files are architecture-independent.

The term subdirectory contains Lisp files that customize Emacs for
certain terminal types.  When Emacs starts, it checks the TERM
environment variable to get the terminal type and loads
`term/${TERM}.el' if it exists.

The other subdirectories hold Lisp packages grouped by their general
purpose.
