I'll be putting that on my todo list. > We already have some of that ion the Emacs tutorial Very little in fact: C-h t C-h i C-h f C-h v M-. → "requires running etags to record all the manuals nodes" C-h p in a quote from the Emacs manual M-x apropos C-h a → the example Chassell gives produces 211 results > and then we have the "Help" chapter in the Emacs manual. The Help chapter provides a "summary of help commands for accessing the built-in documentation." That summary does not group the information by topic but merely lists the commands in the alphabetical order of the keys. Let me attach a patch that groups the commands by topic (tables) in that summary. I am not sure adding a @subsection is the best way to label such groups (tables) but I could not find a better solution.
