Subject: Re: Should `describe-face' have a global binding? Should C-h i be a choice in C-h C-h?
Date: Mon, 24 Jul 2006 10:42:33 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1G51dh-00086b-MG@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <MEEKKIABFKKDFJMPIOEBMEJODDAA.drew.adams@oracle.com>

    1. The `C-h...' commands are one of the main entries to information, and to
    customize, as well. Shouldn't users be able to find `describe-face' when
    they do `C-h C-h'?

Yes, if we can figure out a binding for it.

    I don't have a great suggestion for the C-h binding. (Perhaps `T' for
    "typeface"?)

For coherence, it should be a lower-case letter.  The available ones
are g, o, u, x, y, z.  None seems particularly approproate, but
perhaps g is a little better than the others since it can stand for
"graphics".

Would someone like to do this, and ack?

    2. Shouldn't `C-h i' be in the `C-h C-h' list? Granted, it is not for quick
    help, but I see `C-h C-h' as I kind of help entry menu, and `C-h i' is an
    important entry point.

It is already in the list, looks like.
