list-commands(2)

NAME

list-commands - List available commands

SYNOPSIS

n list-commands (C-h c) 

DESCRIPTION

list-commands constructs a list of all known built in commands and macros that are currently defined by MicroEmacs and presents a list of those commands in the buffer "*commands*". Each entry is formatted as:

command ......................... keyCode

Where multiple keys are bound to the same command, then each of the keyCode's is shown.

list-commands only displays visible commands, if a numeric argument n of 0 is given then all commands are displayed, irrespective of their hidden status.

list-commands is similar to describe-bindings(2) except that the commands are presented in alphabetical order (as opposed to key binding order).

EXAMPLE

The following is an example of the output of list-commands:

backward-char ................. "C-b" 
                                "left" 
backward-delete-char .......... "backspace" 
                                "S-backspace" 
backward-delete-tab ........... "S-tab" 
backward-kill-word ............ "esc backspace" 
backward-line ................. "C-p" 
                                "up" 
                                "C-up" 
backward-paragraph ............ "esc [" 
                                "esc p" 
backward-word ................. "esc b" 
                                "C-left" 
beginning-of-buffer ........... "esc <" 
                                "home"
