That's because it is not a variable. Try C-h f for functions. Other help commands you might want to take a look at, especially if one does not return the information you think it should, as is the case with what you tried are: C-h a apropos In addition to the C-h v for variables and C-h f for functions. You can generally find all the information you need using one of these commands. rdc -- Robert D.
