When I wish to see the self documentation I use



C-h f myfunc



I get a temporary help buffer displaying the docstring for myfunc.



Is it possible to to do the same kind of thing when calling a description function "mydesc".

so that the print function are show in a temporary  help buffer?



(defun mydesc ()

"docstring for mydesc"



(print "The brown fox" help)

(print "jumps over the fence" help) )





M-x mydesc



wiil then behave similar to doing



C-h f somefunc
