Documentation

Non-nil means show the equivalent keybinding when M-x (execute-extended-command) has one.

The value can be a length of time to show the message for. If the value is non-nil and not a number, we wait 2 seconds.

Also see extended-command-suggest-shorter.

Equivalent key-bindings are also shown in the completion list of M-x (execute-extended-command) for all commands that have them.
