`help-echo'. This feature also applies to strings in the mode line
that have a `help-echo' property.
If the value of the `help-echo' property is not a string. it is
evaluated to obtain a help string.
If the value of the `help-echo' property is a function, that function
is called with two arguments OBJECT and POSITION. OBJECT is the
buffer or string which had the `help-echo' property. POSITION is
the position within OBJECT under the mouse pointer. The function
should return a help string or nil for none.
For tool-bar items, their key definition is used to determine the help
to display. If their definition contains a property `:help FORM',
FORM is evaluated to determine the help string. Otherwise, the
caption of the tool-bar item is used.
If the value of the `help-echo' property is neither a function nor a
string, it is evaluated to obtain a help string.
For tool-bar and menu-bar items, their key definition is used to
determine the help to display. If their definition contains a
property `:help FORM', FORM is evaluated to determine the help string.
For tool-bar items without a help form, the caption of the item is
used as help string.
The hook `show-help-function' can be set to a function that displays
help differently. For example, enabling a tooltip window causes the
