Emacs: Show Function Documentation
- Alt+x
describe-function -
Show a function's inline doc.
(commands are also functions.)
🟢 TIP: when you call it and cannot find it, it may be because the Symbol is a variable and not a function. You want to use
describe-variableinstead. 〔see Emacs: Show Variable Value and Doc〕 - Alt+x
describe-command -
Show a command's inline doc.
Like
describe-function, but exclude functions that cannot be called interactively.New in Emacs 29 (date 2023)
