"C-h a mh RET" will only give a one line description of all the mh commands, for example. does any such utility exist, or has someone wrote a function to run describe-function iteratively on the output of an apropos? thanks. -bw

Super-apropos comes with a 'quick-apropos look-alike to apropos that does what you request. Also, unlike the distributed apropos, super-apropos uses lisp functions exclusively. It is much easier to modify super-apropos to custom needs than it is to recreate apropos in lisp. -- Lynn =============================================================== Lynn Slater -- lrs@esl.com ESL/TRW 495 Java Drive, Box 3510, Sunnyvale, Ca 94088-3510 Office (408) 738-2888 x 4482; Home (415) 796-4149 ===============================================================
