From: Howard Melman <hmelman <at> gmail.com> To: GNU Emacs <bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org> Subject: 28.1; bindings for widget-describe and button-describe Date: Fri, 15 Apr 2022 15:48:28 -0400
Maybe I'm missing something but I see that Emacs 28.1 added functions widget-describe and button-describe that offer help when point is on one of these things, but there's no binding for them. I think that some key, perhaps C-h or ? or something should invoke these when point is on them. Maybe it should be integrated with display-local-help on `C-h .' ?
