##### Question 8.1

How to find information and help inside Emacs?

##### Answer

The first stop should be the Gnus manual (Say ‘`C-h i d m Gnus RET`’ to start the Gnus manual, then walk through the menus or do a full-text search with ‘`s`’). Then there are the general Emacs help commands starting with C-h, type ‘`C-h ? ?`’ to get a list of all available help commands and their meaning. Finally ‘`M-x apropos-command`’ lets you search through all available functions and ‘`M-x apropos`’ searches the bound variables.
