83 (HELP-MODE REGEXP IGNORE-CASE DOC-SPEC PARSE-RULE OTHER-MODES)
85 HELP-MODE is a mode's symbol.
86 REGEXP is a regular expression matching those help items whose
87 documentation can be looked up via DOC-SPEC.
88 IGNORE-CASE is non-nil if help items are case insensitive.
89 DOC-SPEC is a list of documentation specifications of the form
91 (INFO-NODE TRANS-FUNC PREFIX SUFFIX)
93 INFO-NODE is the name (including file name part) of an Info index.
94 TRANS-FUNC is a function translating index entries into help items;
95 nil means add only those index entries matching REGEXP, a string
96 means prepend string to the first word of all index entries.
97 PREFIX and SUFFIX are parts of a regular expression. If one of
98 them is non-nil then search the help item's Info node for the
99 first occurrence of the regular expression `PREFIX ITEM SUFFIX'.
100 ITEM will be highlighted with `info-lookup-highlight-face' if this
101 variable is not nil.
102 PARSE-RULE is either the symbol name of a function or a regular
103 expression for guessing the default help item at point. Fuzzy
104 regular expressions like \"[_a-zA-Z0-9]+\" do a better job if
105 there are no clear delimiters; do not try to write too complex
106 expressions. PARSE-RULE defaults to REGEXP.
107 OTHER-MODES is a list of cross references to other help modes.")
