1. M-x describe-minor-mode The user of describe-minor-mode can give its argument with completion. The completion table is built from the name of minor modes activated on the current buffer. 2. M-x describe-minor-mode-from-indicator Almost the same as describe-minor-mode but the user can pass an indicator instead of minor mode name to get help. I could not implment completion. (You will be not satisfied with "without completion".) This is a very useful feature. It could be more useful if the user could click on a minor mode name in the mode line and get a description of it. This could work for mahor modes too. Right now only mouse-3 is used on this part of the mode line. (It is not hard to call completing-read--did you find this difficult?).
