Tags: patch

describe-keymap differs from other describe-* commands in that it does
not suggest the symbol at point which always annoyed me.  This patch
makes describe-keymap consider the symbol at point first.

[ I hope it is okay to use if-let family of macros in these files now?  ]

Perfect, thanks.

No further comments, so I've now installed this on the master branch.

One nit for the future: please always mention the bug number, when
it's known, in the commit log message.  (I added it for you this
time.)

And with that, I'm closing the bug.  Thanks  for working on this.
