Hi all,
This is a follow-up https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2019-10/msg00090.html.
Help-echo strings are not displayed consistently by show_help_echo (in keyboard.c) and display-local-help (in help-at-pt.el): in tooltips, substitute-command-keys is called on the help-echo string before passing it to show-help-function, but help-at-pt doesn't perform any substitutions before calling the function.
To reproduce, (insert (propertize "test" 'help-echo "\\[forward-char]")), then press C-h . (which displays \[forward-char]) or hover over the inserted text with your mouse (which displays C-f).
Clément.

I've fixed this on master in commit f3b85cd0cb.
I've also posted a followup bug here:
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=43070
I'm therefore closing this bug report.
Best regards,
Stefan Kangas
