Subject: bug#39215: Hyperlinks to man pages in doc strings
Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2020 09:55:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87h80pmbn5.fsf@marxist.se> (raw)
Severity: wishlist
Please add the possibility to write in doc strings:
man page `find'
and have it automatically converted into a hyperlink which will open
up M-x man and visit the specified man page.
The proposed feature complements the already existing functionality
with hyperlinks to info pages.[1]
For an example of where this would be useful, please see the doc
string of `dired-do-chmod'.
Best regards,
Stefan Kangas
