Severity: wishlist

In apropos-mode, the keys `p' and `n' should jump to the previous/next 
label (not button).

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I wrote up a quick set of functions which accomplishes this and added them
to the apropos-mode keymap - see the attached patch file.

The functions search forward (or backwards) for the 'apropos-symbol
face; there could be a cleaner way to do this, but this seems to work
pretty well.

Hi Justin,

Your patch looks good to me, and also seems to be working.  However, I
can only find one previous contribution from you, and together with
that you get more than the 15 lines in total contributed which we can
accept without a copyright assignment.

In order to accept your patch, we therefore need you to sign Copyright
assignments paper.  This is a simple and quick procedure technically.
You can find more information on the reasons why we do this here:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-assign.html

Would you be willing to sign such papers?  If yes, someone on this
list will help you get the process going.  Please let us know.

Best regards,
Stefan Kangas

Yes, I’m fine with that - just send over whatever forms I need to fill out!

Great!  Thanks for your contribution.

That was 14 weeks ago.

What is the current status on this?  Do we have the copyright
assignment for Justin Timmons on file?

Sorry for dropping the thread on this - was getting married around that
time so life got a bit hectic! I just sent the assignment information over
so it should be ready to go soon.
