Documentation

Allow \C-h (help-char) to trigger which-key popup before timer.

Show the which-key buffer if help-char is pressed in the middle of a prefix before the which-key buffer would normally be triggered by the time. If combined with the following settings, which-key will effectively only show when triggered "manually" using \C-h.

(setq which-key-idle-delay 10000)
(setq which-key-idle-secondary-delay 0.05)

Note that which-key-idle-delay should be set before turning on which-key-mode(var)/which-key-mode(fun).

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in which-key version 1.0.
