There is no ghelp buffer in list-buffers #5

Closed krdzo closed 1 year ago

krdzo commented 2 years ago

Hi. If I run this: M-x ghelp-describe-function RET setq I get a *ghelp emacs-lisp-mode : setq* buffer. If then I close this buffer with q it wanishes, it can't be found with list-buffers.

Is there a way that the *ghelp emacs-lisp-mode :...* buffer shows in list-buffers or switch-to-buffer prompt and if there isn't a way can you add it. It would be great if for every different mode in ghelp-history-alist we got a separate ghelp buffer, i.e. if in ghelp-history-alist there are histories for js-mode, go-mode and emacs-lisp-mode we got *ghelp js-mode...*, *ghelp go-mode...* and *ghelp emacs-lisp-mode...* buffers.

Hey sorry I forgot about this issue. ghelp buffers are hidden from normal buffer list to not clutter it up. If you want to see them, just type a space in list-buffers then you should see the ghelp buffers.

Ah ok, I didn't know about hidden buffers. Thank you
