Re: searchable refcard?

Carsten,


thanks for the hint!

Maybe I'll try to learn a little more elisp between the years :-)


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")
              )))))))


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")))


and dolist and eval, but I couldn't get my head around those `non-local
exits' (throw and catch). It should work with a list, to offer several
sections in the manual per context. And such a list would be easy to
maintain.



Still an elisp-dyslexic,


    Sebastian
