Subject: bug#6545: Menu entry for describe-package
Date: Thu, 01 Jul 2010 03:39:02 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <29464_1277948345_ZZh022J2LRI7q.00_1277948342.2552.8.camel@steed.robot-madness> (raw)

Hi.
I suggest adding a "Describe Package" menu item in the "Help > Describe"
menu, in analogy to the other `describe-*' functions. The attached patch
adds the menu entry.
Looking at the neighboring entries, it seems like the function should be
bound to C-h p. However, this binding is already in use (by
`finder-by-keyword').
The subject has (without much success) been brought up on emacs-devel:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2010-06/msg00868.html
Kind regards,
Jan Moringen
