Cheatsheet.el

Cheatsheet.el is a tool for creating your own Emacs cheatsheet. Why I've created this plugin:

• I want to start using new plugin without learning keys - cheatsheet.el lets you to define keys you want to be able to find quickly
• I don't need to see all keys, defined in different keymaps
• I don't need to see all keys, defined in any plugin
• I want to write my own key description
• I want to see commands near the keys in my cheatsheet

All this problems can be solved using cheatsheet.el

Getting started

• Get cheatsheet.el
  • Via MELPA
  • Manually download cheatsheet.el and set-up your load path. Find out more.
• Load package - (require 'cheatsheet)
• Add your first cheat:

(cheatsheet-add :group 'Common
                :key "C-x C-c"
                :description "leave Emacs.")

• Run (cheatsheet-show) and enjoy :-)
