;; By default, Which-key doesn't give much help for prefix-keys. It | |

;; prefix-command, which usually isn't as descriptive as we'd like. | |
;; | |
;; Here are some descriptions for the default bindings in `global-map' | |
;; and `org-mode-map'. | |

The emoji prefix map (mapped to C-x 8 e
) is missing.
Added now. Thank you!
"C-x X" "edebug"
"C-x X" "edebug"
Added. Thank you!
Added more descriptions for the child and grandchild-prefixes under "C-x 8", as well as some of the character variants that are hard to identify visually, like non-breaking hyphens.
Should make it somewhat easier to find and insert characters not found on your keyboard.
