GNU Emacs 30.0.50 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version
3.24.41, cairo version 1.18.0) of 2024-04-02
emacs -Q --batch \
--eval '(global-set-key (kbd "c") (lambda () (interactive) t))' \
--eval '(describe-key "c")' \
--eval '(with-current-buffer "*Help*" (print
(buffer-substring-no-properties (point-min) (point-max))))'
Outputs the following poetry:
"c runs the command #<closure 0FE> (found in global-map), which is
.
It is bound to c.
(anonymous)
"
"which is..."?
What is describe-key trying to tell us?
Is it respecting the function's wish to remain anonymous?
Is it commentary on the limits of descriptive language?
I can only respond with the output of M-x describe-feelings:
"It is bound to c, yet I see a bind:
Though closure mentioned, none I've yet to find."
