See what you can do at any moment:

* See which possible inputs are expected by a command that reads input.

* See which key sequences are currently available, which of them are general vs
which are local, and what each of them does.

* See individual descriptions of the possible inputs, that is, help on
completion candidates (including with `C-h f', `C-h v').

* Find menu items more easily.

* Find commands more easily.

* Find help in the doc (manuals).

* Learn how to use regexps.
