FWIW, it can be found through index entries such as 'minibuffer > history', 'M-n (minibuffer history)', 'DOWN (minibuffer history)', etc. I would like to see some indication of the type of input it requires. Perhaps that information can go on the mode-line (for instance some type of designated coloured mouse button for mini-buffer information). > For more details on minibuffer keymaps there's also > (info "(emacs) Minibuffer Maps")[2], found e.g. via the index entry > 'C-h r i minibuffer key TAB RET'. > > [1]: https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Minibuffe= r-History.html > [2]: https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Minibuffe= r-Maps.html > > HTH, > > -- > Basil >
