I know that I can bring up a Helm buffer which shows available bindings. But I would like to do some scripting around available keybindings and commands. Is there a way to dump that output to a regular buffer rather than to Helm?

C-h b
? (which isdescribe-bindings
, so I'm a bit confused by your question, but maybe helm hijacks that binding? Compare withemacs -Q
). – phils Dec 15 '18 at 4:07describe-bindings
does - it creates a buffer listing all the available key bindings. You can save that buffer to a file like you would any other buffer. – Tyler Dec 19 '18 at 15:36describe-bindings
it opens up a buffer named HELM Descbinds - I can't do anything but type a pattern to filter it or dismiss it. – George Mauer Dec 19 '18 at 22:06helm-descbinds
overrides the default version ofdescribe-bindings
. Disablehelm-descbinds
and you should get the default version again – Tyler Dec 19 '18 at 23:24
