emacs, linux and C

[Richard G. Riley]

I am looking for a way to integrate the C library documentation into
emacs' C mode. Adding any linux library documentation would be a
bonus.

e.g hilite word, hotkey to library documentation.

thanks for any help.

You'd be better off asking about this in an Emacs newsgroup.

That's not really a C question. Try gnu.emacs.

We must do something. This is something. Therefore, we must do this.

I will, thanks. This being a C programmers group though I didnt think it was
too OT.

In that case it is obvious you have not lurked for long enough.

Without wanting to continue this too long, why would it be incorrect
to ask seasoned programmers such a question? Programmers who,
presumably, use some sort of IDE/Editor combo to support the C
language development. Google didn't help me, and I considered that
some clever sdo here might have implemented something.

Because this is the wrong place. The subject is the language, not
the various systems and implementations . The simple act of lurking
should have made that apparent, and also have suggested several
possible suitable newsgroups.

Since I asked about supporting the language it is hardly the end of
the world. Now, since you were not able or not willing to help I
really dont know why you bother lecturing. You may or may not realise
this but this is a PROGRAMMING group dedicated to the C language and I
asked about a programming utility for the C langauge. Since I was
specifically asking about C bindings for emacs then here he is valid
as .emacs. Or would your brother in .emacs tell me to come here since
emacs is, in fact, built in lispp?

As for your comment about implementation this is clearly wrong since
many questions cover the various standards and implementations as
related to how the language is.

Sheesh. Save your energy for helping someone.

Your question is obviously about Emacs. Ask in gnu.emacs.help.

.... the /language/, as defined by the standard(s), rather than things
that happen to target the language, or use the language, or help you
edit the language.
