Well, that last part I don't know, Emacs provides several
interfaces to search and browse documentation and Elisp
docstrings are integrated (found) in the code itself, also
a `defun' that is put into effect (i.e., `eval'd) is then
immediately accessible thru the help system, there is also
a couple of helpers to improve code style and documentation
(they even remind you to add it if it isn't there) - all this
is well and good but OTOH 1) why wouldn't it be like that?
and 2) you _still_ have to write the actual documentation ...
