[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

In an apropos-mode buffer it'd be good if the info-look setups (C-h S)
used the elisp manuals.  Eg.

    M-x apropos
    car
    C-x o
    C-u 5 C-n   (onto the "car" line)
    C-h S

asks in the minibuffer

    Use symbol help mode:

where I thought it might know that already.

	* info-look.el: Add setup for apropos-mode to use emacs-lisp-mode
	manuals (similar to existing setup for help-mode).
