I tried it the stupid way, just to see it working:


(defun org-context-help ()
  "Context help for org-mode"
  (interactive)
  (if (org-at-table-p)
      (info "(org)tables")
    (if (org-at-timestamp-p)
        (info "(org)timestamps")
      (if (org-at-item-checkbox-p)
          (info "(org)Checkboxes")
        (if (org-at-item-p)
            (info "(org)plain lists")
          (if (org-at-heading-p)
              (info "(org)headlines")
            (if (org-at-property-p)
                (info "(org)Properties and Columns")
              )))))))

For this kind of multi-way branch, cond is easier to deal with:

(cond ((org-at-table-p)
       (info "(org)tables"))
      ((org-at-timestamp-p)
       (info "(org)timestamps"))
      ((org-at-item-checkbox-p)
       (info "(org)Checkboxes"))
      ((org-at-item-p)
       (info "(org)plain lists"))
      ((org-at-heading-p)
       (info "(org)headlines"))
      ((org-at-property-p)
       (info "(org)Properties and Columns")))



Just for the fun of it.



I tried to use a list like this:

(setq org-context-help-map
      '(('org-at-item-checkbox-p "(org)Checkboxes" "(org)plain lists")
        ('org-at-item-p "(org)plain lists" "(org)Checkboxes")
        ('org-at-property-p "(org)Properties and Columns")
        ('org-at-timestamp-p "(org)timestamps" "(org)deadlines and
scheduling")
        ('org-at-table-p "(org)tables")
        ('org-at-heading-p "(org)headlines")))

For this you need (require 'cl), but what about

(let ((cell (find-if (lambda (lst) (eval `(,(first lst))))
org-context-help-map)))
  (when cell
    (eval `(,(second cell)))))

The find avoids the need to do a non-local exit.

Note that I don't understand what you're doing with having two info
indices, so I ignored the second one...

Alternatively

(loop for (test info-entry info-entry2) in org-context-help-map
      when (eval `(,test))
	return info-entry)

using the loop macro...

BTW, I don't think you want that quote inside your definition of
org-context-help-map.  You want '((org-at-item-checkbox-p ...)) not
'(('org-at-item-checkbox-p ...))  The extra quote will be a nuisance.

HTH,
R

Hi Robert,


those functions you mentioned are on my list for long winter nights :-)

Sometimes more than just one section of the manual match the context. I
would like to choose in those situations. While on a checkbox item, the
sections `checkboxes' and 'plain lists' both match. RET RET should just
open the default (which would be the first of those two).
