Hi Jean Louis,
try this:

;; Try: (eek "M-h M-k  <right>")
;;      (eek "M-h M-k  <right>   12*<down>")
;;      (eek "M-h M-k  <right>   12*<down> M-e")
;;      (eek "M-h M-k  M-h M-k  ;; find-ekey-links")
;;      (find-efunction 'find-ekey-links)
;;      (find-efunction 'ee-find-eboundkey-links)
;;      (find-definition-for-key (kbd "<right>"))

(defun find-definition-for-key (key &rest pos-spec-list)
"Based on `find-ekey-links' (`M-h M-k') and `find-efunction'."
  (interactive "kFunction definition for Key: ")
  (find-efunction (key-binding key)))

(defalias 'fdk 'find-definition-for-key)
