Names for Prefix Commands

[Profpatsch]

See e.g. #2713 (comment)
It’s part of self-documenting the possibilities.

If it already exists it should be documented.

To be sure I understand the issue, you are asking for a documentation on how to give names to prefix commands ? Maybe as well an explanation about what they are etc... ?

[Profpatsch]

@syl20bnr Yes. Of course provided there is a way.

Instead of documenting the (IMO inelegant) current method for 0.104, can I suggest changing the way keys are bound to integrate the naming of prefixes with the binding of keys, so that the whole process is more transparent and easier to understand. I came up with one proposal in #2731. Of course this would be a bigger initiative, and I would not want this to hold up the 104 release.

I can add documentation, but I'm not sure where to put it

[syl20bnr]

Create a section in the documentation for setting key bindings if it does not exist yet.

[justbur]

Added documentation to #2876

I can break it out into a new pr if you like

Probably can be closed now
