It's very lightly tested. > SJ> Hey, cool! Works great for me. > I hope it gets included into emacs then. Stefan, could you please install your patch that implements completions for `man'. This is very useful. Maybe later Kevin Ryde will add more code to man.el from his man-completion.el. Some useful things in man-completion.el are the cache for `man -k', handling same names in different sections. Also part of man-completion.el deals with man-completion-at-point that returns a man page name as a string found at point. I think this part should be properly integrated into the "thing-at-point" framework. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
