+
+;;; Commentary:
+;;
+;; The funniest thing about this is that I can't imagine why a package
+;; so obviously useful as this hasn't been written before!!
+;; This probably belongs in "help.el" or somewhere like that.
+;;
+;; Put this file in your `load-path', byte-compile it and add the
+;; following code in your init file:
+;;
+;; ;;; find-func
+;; (load "find-function")
+;; (global-set-key [(control ?c) ?f] 'find-function)
+;; (global-set-key [(control ?c) ?4 ?f] 'find-function-other-window)
+;; (global-set-key [(control ?c) ?5 ?f] 'find-function-other-frame)
+;; (global-set-key [(control ?c) ?k] 'find-function-on-key)
+;;
+;; and away you go! It does pretty much what you would expect,
+;; putting the cursor at the definition of the function at point.
+;;
+;; The code is adapted from `describe-function', `describe-key'
+;; ("help.el") and `fff-find-loaded-emacs-lisp-function' (Noah Friedman's
+;; "fff.el").
+
+;;; To do:
+;;
+;; o custom?
+;;
+;; o improve handling of advice'd functions? (at the moment it goes to
+;; the advice, not the actual definition)
