Subject: bug#41021: [PATCH] New command apropos-function
Date: Sun, 3 May 2020 13:13:59 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <aa639c8e-f051-48a8-a7ce-541127dd7886@default> (raw)

> Is this to save the user typing C-u before invoking "C-h a"?

Yes.  That was the request by OP, AFAIK.

The Commentary of `apropos-fn+var.el' says this:

;;  Standard `apropos' commands `apropos-variable' and
;;  `apropos-command' do not distinguish, by command name,
;;  between the different types of target object (but you
;;  can do that via `C-u').  This library provides
;;  individual `apropos' commands for user options,
;;  variables in general (not just options), and functions
;;  in general (not just commands).
