Yes, true. Since the info file comes with org-mode, it would be a natural way to do this IMO. It's so simple to search in info, since C-s searches accross sections and even files. >> Context help >> ============ >> >> As for help in general: >> >> How about binding a key (e.g. `C-c h') to a function calling (info >> &optional file-or-node) to get context-help while in an org-file? >> >> (info "(org)tags") if on a tag, >> (info "(org)properties and columns") if in `#+COLUMNS' line >> >> ...and so on. >> >> Often more than one section will match, so a mapping would be needed >> as well, as some sort of completion. > > I do like that idea. It's the only feature MS-Office and openoffice.org have, that's not in Org-mode yet :-) Just courious: How would I reveal the context at point? Would I use those predicates as `org-at-xxx-p'?
