I knew about it but hadn't looked through it in detail. I took another
look and saw a bug (3849) for eshell (lack of) documentation.  That
would work. I saw a couple more that looked interesting. Thanks!

Ok, that sounds interesting. I tried ECB + CEDET about a year ago and
found it very hard to use at that point. Felt like I had to really
understand them to be able to use them instead of just being able to
use them. I was also just then starting to try out Emacs so that
probably made it worse. I haven't tried it recently though I read that
a new version of both were released.
