Once in a while I also find existing functions that I somehow want to relate so I have a package which contains lots of dual put-calls like: (put 'trace-function :related 'debug-on-entry) (put 'debug-on-entry :related 'trace-function) I know would like to this information to be displayed (at the end preferrably) when I do describe-... on that symbol. Any tips on realizing this using hooks or advices to the help functions? Thanks in advance, Nordl=F6w
