# Show Matching Entries For Help
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Looking up things with Vim's `:help` command can be error prone if you don't
|
||||||
|
know exactly how to format what you are looking up. Bypass some of the
|
||||||
|
guesswork by hitting `Ctrl-d` after writing part of the `:help` command.
|
||||||
|
This will populate a wildmenu of possible matches.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For instance, if you know there is a command containing `?`, but you aren't
|
||||||
|
sure how to look it up, try the following:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
:help ?<Ctrl-d>
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can tab through to the one you want and hit enter to read up on it. Who
|
||||||
|
knew there were so many Vim bindings involving a `?`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
See `:h help-context` for more details.
