According to the source code of `org-insert-drawer', I think the manual is saying that when ARG is non-nil, the function simply calls `org-insert-property-drawer'. However, `org-insert-property-drawer' is not declared interactive, so you wouldn't be able to M-x it.

Let me enlarge the scope (hence the new title). The manual says, in 1.5 Typesetting Conventions Used in this Manual (Key bindings and commands): In the manual we will, wherever possible, give the function that is internally called by the generic command. so I was trying to understand if there is a way to deduce whether or not a particular function is a command. Based on several examples such as ‘M-<RIGHT>’ (‘org-do-demote’) I conjectured that, when an interactive function does correspond to a command, it is just mentioned between parentheses, right after its corresponding key combination. I tried to check this in an as much systematic way as I could and investigated 330 such instances (based on the manual of version 9.5). I concluded that, out of the 330, at most 9 of them are counter examples (and I think even less; see list below). 9 is a very small proportion, which leads me to say that, in my opinion, it would be nice: - that this conjecture be transformed into a theorem (i.e., that exceptions be removed), - that this convention be mentioned in the aforementioned section 1.5, - that even if a function is _not_ mentioned in that conventional form, it be explicitly stated in the manual that it is non-interactive (just as was recently proposed for 'org-insert-property-drawer' by Ihor+Bastien). (And if that convention is not to be adopted, then all the more reason to duly mention exceptions to the quasi-rule.) Regards PS: as an aside note: during my quest, I met the following unsettling (to me) cases, of functions that are not interactive "right away", but appear (to me) to become interactive after "something" has been loaded (please forgive the informal wording: I don't know the proper terminology). They are the 'org-capture-*' and the 'org-attach-*' functions. For example, with the cursor on 'org-capture-finalize' in the manual, 'C-h f <RET>' gives nothing right away; 'C-h f org-capture<TAB>' does not offer 'org-capture-finalize' as a completion; 'C-h f org-capture-fin<TAB>' does complete and says that 'org-capture-finalize' is interactive; and then it becomes possible to use it with 'M-x'. Similarly, as far I as can see, 'M-x org-attach-attach' fails right away, but works after having been used once with the standard (menu) way. I can understand why it is like that, but still find it disconcerting. If it is to stay this way, perhaps things could be made more explicit in the manual. --- List (of non interactive functions that might be thought interactive to the ignorant): - ‘C-u C-u <TAB>’ (‘org-set-startup-visibility’) - ‘S-<RIGHT>’ (‘org-clocktable-try-shift’) - ‘C-0 C-c C-w’ or ‘C-u C-u C-u C-c C-w’ (‘org-refile-cache-clear’) - ‘M-<UP>’ (‘org-table-fedit-scroll-up’) It feels strange to me that 'org-table-fedit-scroll-down' be an interactive function but not the 'scroll-up' version; in fact: 'C-h f org-table-fedit-scroll-up' -> (No matches) - ‘S-<RIGHT>’ (‘org-property-next-allowed-values’) Shouldn't it be 'org-property-next-allowed-value'? - ‘U’ (‘org-agenda-bulk-remove-all-marks’) Shouldn't it be 'org-agenda-bulk-unmark-all'? - ‘C-c C-e’ (‘org-export’) Shouldn't this one be 'org-export-dispatch'? - ‘C-c '’ (‘org-edit~special’) This must be a typo, right? - ‘C-c C-e o o’ (‘org-export-to-odt’) Shouldn't it be 'org-odt-export-to-odt'? -- EOST (École et Observatoire des Sciences de la Terre) ITE (Institut Terre & Environnement) | alain.cochard@unistra.fr 5 rue René Descartes [bureau 110] | Phone: +33 (0)3 68 85 50 44 F-67084 Strasbourg Cedex, France | [ slot available for rent ] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 12+ messages in thread

To improve loading speed, Org starts with minimal set of packages, other should be loaded on demand. See `org-modules'. For C-h f (`describe-function') behavior see https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=60085 "`help-enable-autoload' is not fully obeyed" As to `org-capture-finalize', while being interactive, it is of little use before capture is started and so org-capture is loaded. That is why it is not marked for autoload and unavailable for M-x. In future it might be restricted to a specific "capture" mode. Perhaps there is a way to generate TAGS file for Org files an to instruct Emacs to lookup collected symbols there. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 12+ messages in thread

Based on several examples > such as > > ‘M-<RIGHT>’ (‘org-do-demote’) Function is considered command when it has declaration (interactive) See: (info "(elisp) Defining Commands") 22.2 Defining Commands ====================== The special form ‘interactive’ turns a Lisp function into a command. The ‘interactive’ form must be located at top-level in the function body, usually as the first form in the body; this applies to both lambda expressions (*note Lambda Expressions::) and ‘defun’ forms (*note Defining Functions::). This form does nothing during the actual execution of the function; its presence serves as a flag, telling the Emacs command loop that the function can be called interactively. The argument of the ‘interactive’ form specifies how the arguments for an interactive call should be read. Please note ----------- The word "interactive" is used in context of Emacs Lisp, and not in the context of English language. In the context of the English language any Emacs Lisp function may be interactive, even if it is not a command. And to note is that only commands, which are functions with (interactive) declaration, may be bound to keys. > I conjectured that, when an interactive function does correspond to a > command, Function with (interactive) declaraion IS a command. But in English language ordinary context in computing, a function may be interactive but not a command, because it does not have (interactive) declaration. > it is just mentioned between parentheses, right after its > corresponding key combination.

When programmer wish to find out if function is interactive, one can use C-h f function-name-here to see if it is interactive, or one may jump to it's definition: (find-function 'org-insert-property-drawer) and see if there is declaration to be command, or to use the test like this: (commandp 'org-insert-property-drawer) ➜ nil IMHO, mentioning for each function if it is interactive or non-interactive in Emacs manual is waste. And programmers shall observe that commands should appear only in corresponding modes: If MODES is present, it should be a list of mode names (symbols) that this command is applicable for. The main effect of this is that ‘M-x TAB’ (by default) won’t list this command if the current buffer’s mode doesn’t match the list. That is, if either the major mode isn’t derived from them, or (when it’s a minor mode) the mode isn’t in effect. > (interactive &optional ARG-DESCRIPTOR &rest MODES) > If MODES is present, it should be a list of mode names (symbols) that > this command is applicable for.
