Type RET on a type label to view its full documentation.

table-shorten-cell M-x ... RET
Command: Shorten the current cell by N lines by shrinking the cell
vertically.
yas-shortest-key-until-whitespace
Function: Like `yas-longest-key-from-whitespace' but take the
shortest key.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
