Function: command-apropos

command-apropos is a function alias and interactive for apropos-command, defined in apropos.el.gz.

Signature

(command-apropos PATTERN &optional DO-ALL VAR-PREDICATE)

Documentation

Show commands (interactively callable functions) that match PATTERN.

PATTERN can be a word, a list of words (separated by spaces), or a regexp (using some regexp special characters). If it is a word, search for matches for that word as a substring. If it is a list of words, search for matches for any two (or more) of those words.

With C-u (universal-argument) prefix, or if apropos-do-all is non-nil, also show noninteractive functions.

If VAR-PREDICATE is non-nil, show only variables, and only those that satisfy the predicate VAR-PREDICATE.

When called from a Lisp program, a string PATTERN is used as a regexp, while a list of strings is used as a word list.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 1.8.
