Subject: (info-lookup-guess-custom-symbol): New function for retrieving symbol at point
X-Git-Tag: emacs-pretest-22.0.91~337
X-Git-Url: http://git.eshelyaron.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ec4ef1745798a7299239f68ad4df5ca54a747f6d;p=emacs.git

(info-lookup-guess-custom-symbol): New function for retrieving symbol at point
in custom buffers.
(top level) <info-lookup-maybe-add-help>: Add backquote and comma to ignored
characters in regexps of help specifications for emacs-lisp-mode and
lisp-interaction-mode.  This permits looking up symbols in `...' and after a
comma.  Add help specifications for custom-mode and help-mode.
