Emacs Info Expressions
On #emacs IRC or Matrix channels, we often share references to the built-in Emacs documentation as Elisp expressions that look like this: (info "(emacs) Basic Undo") Here is another example: (info "(emacs) Word Search") This is a common practice in the Emacs channels even though all of the Emacs manual is available on the world wide web too. For example, the section referred to in the above expression is available here: GNU Emacs Manual: Word Search.
For example, we could type the following key sequence on a fresh new line to create the Elisp expression and copy it to the kill ring: I recently learnt from Karthink and Mekeor Milire that we can ask Emacs to create the entire info expression automatically for us. Alternatively, they might want to type M-: C-y RET to bring the eval-expression minibuffer, paste the expression, and evaluate it.
