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).
