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