Subject: Elisp command calling (describe-function) interactively

Started with using completing-read for inputting the function name, but does not
look that the use of completing-read is appropriate, because completing-read only
accepts completion from a predefined list.
(defun ehelp (actm)
"Describe emacs help commands."
(interactive
(list
(let* ( (cseq '("variable" "function")) )
(completing-read "Emacs_help: " cseq nil t "function"))))
(pcase actm
("function"
(describe-function (completing-read "function: " nil nil nil)))
(_ (message "TODO"))) )
