That's the problem I'm trying to address.
If the list members could provide the 'clues' I'm more than willing
to collate them, or perhaps we could use a wiki or some other web site
to collect them?
Ideas for an 'index' please? What form? Its the match of 'idea/usage'
vs package name/variable/mode. Generally once you have the key words,
emacs is sufficiently helpful?
