You mean the command which is called by `C-h k'? ,----[ C-h k C-h k ] | C-h k runs the command describe-key, which is an interactive compiled Lisp | function in `help.el'. | | It is bound to C-h k, k, k, | . | | (describe-key &optional key untranslated up-event) | | Display documentation of the function invoked by key. | key can be any kind of a key sequence; it can include keyboard events, | mouse events, and/or menu events. When calling from a program, | pass key as a string or a vector. | | If non-nil, untranslated is a vector of the corresponding untranslated events. | It can also be a number, in which case the untranslated events from | the last key sequence entered are used. | up-event is the up-event that was discarded by reading key, or nil. | | If key is a menu item or a tool-bar button that is disabled, this command | temporarily enables it to allow getting help on disabled items and buttons. `---- Bye, Tassilo -- "Emacs is not a development tool but a way of life." - David Kastrup in alt.religion.emacs -
