e5167999 26;;; Commentary:
6f8e447f
RS
27
28;; The ideas for this package were derived from the C code in
29;; src/keymap.c and elsewhere. The functions in this file should
30;; always be byte-compiled for speed. Someone should rewrite this in
31;; C (as part of src/keymap.c) for speed.
32
33;; The idea for super-apropos is based on the original implementation
34;; by Lynn Slater <lrs@esl.com>.
35
36;; History:
37;; Fixed bug, current-local-map can return nil.
38;; Change, doesn't calculate key-bindings unless needed.
39;; Added super-apropos capability, changed print functions.
3925e76d
KH
40;;; Made fast-apropos and super-apropos share code.
41;;; Sped up fast-apropos again.
6f8e447f 42;; Added apropos-do-all option.
3925e76d 43;;; Added fast-command-apropos.
6f8e447f 44;; Changed doc strings to comments for helping functions.
3925e76d 45;;; Made doc file buffer read-only, buried it.
6f8e447f
RS
46;; Only call substitute-command-keys if do-all set.
47
645c4f6a
KH
48;; Optionally use configurable faces to make the output more legible.
49;; Differentiate between command, function and macro.
3925e76d
KH
50;; Apropos-command (ex command-apropos) does cmd and optionally user var.
51;; Apropos shows all 3 aspects of symbols (fn, var and plist)
52;; Apropos-documentation (ex super-apropos) now finds all it should.
53;; New apropos-value snoops through all values and optionally plists.
54;; Reading DOC file doesn't load nroff.
55;; Added hypertext following of documentation, mouse-2 on variable gives value
56;; from buffer in active window.
