See helpful [1] package. It provides links from help buffers to manual.
For links from manual, there is always v/f/.

I'm the opposite. I find it a great way to quickly look up (or search

But then again, I know the difference between C-h m and C-h i (as well

Great to hear! I think this would probably be developed as a branch like
wip-cite-new, and it would need transient to be

i guess i was merely saying: instead of h, which a new user might not
try, something that works for everything in emacs might be a
possibility. but c-h m and c-h b could perhaps be improved a bit and
include mode-specific text [details left to reader as exercise].

Looks to me like calc shines brightest with its help system which btw
one enters with key h.
Up to now I see the precedents
- dired
- help-mode
- view-mode
- Buffer-menu-mode
They all have h be the same as C-h m
are there precedents? calc? h in dired does c-h m.
just a brainstorm but maybe c-h m and c-h b can be more friendly for all modes?

Hi all!
What do you think about binding key h to function describe-mode in Org
agenda? Basically pressing key h would open a window showing the key
bindings in the agenda. There would also be additional information.
The implementation could be just the line
