Determine from help if there is a shortcut - fgallina django

[Sayth Renshaw]

Hi

I am still learning emacs, I have installed python-django and accessed help from 'C-h a' I located the command I wanted and of course there is a M-x version of it, but how can I determine if there is already a author defined shortcut key combo?

The help says

python-django-cmd-jump-to-app is an interactive compiled Lisp function
in `python-django.el'.

(python-django-cmd-jump-to-app APP)

Jump to APP's directory.

Is there an extra help step to identify this?

Thanks

Sayth

C-h a shows all the keys that are bound to the command. If you don't see 
any keyboard shortcuts listed there, there aren't any.

You can also use C-h w, which prompts for the name of a command and 
shows you all the key bindings for it.

Thanks and C-h w confirms that it is no bound to any key.

On a related note, how can one get all commands whose shortcut starts
with the same prefix, like C-h ? Your post pointed out that there are
still some commands in the C-h family that I don't know.

It's not exactly the same thing as C-h ? (that is a special command,
`help-for-help' that gives a nice overview with some explanations) - but
you can type C-h after each not yet complete key input to see all
commands reachable with this prefix.  Try e.g. C-x 5 C-h.

Yes it is, but I was also looking for the other method you gave, thank you.
