Documentation

[Compatibility function for buttonize, defined in Emacs 29.1. See (compat)
Emacs 29.1' for more details.]

Make STRING into a button and return it. When clicked, CALLBACK will be called with the DATA as the function argument. If DATA isn't present (or is nil), the button itself will be used instead as the function argument.

If HELP-ECHO, use that as the help-echo property.

Also see buttonize-region.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 23.1.
