So, this is a long-shot but I figured I would ask here. A week or so ago, was knee deep in some Clojure with CIDER jacked in and I hit some set of key combinations and managed to enable some kind of tooltip (i.e. a popup that appeared below the cursor) that had usages of the symbol at that point. Moreover I was able to scroll and navigate to that usage in a different file. I don’t think I was hallucinating, but since then I haven’t been able to find that key-combination, and I didn’t think to look it up in describe-key. Has anyone experienced such a miracle? On a side note I’d like to start a Craiglist “Missed Connections” but instead of being for random hookups, missed emacs actions.

Thank you, I will definitely keep that around the next time I do something like that!

@asragab I just want to say that I found find your experience very intriguing, and have been searching for it by googling and trawling through function names with M-x. Like you and @eggsyntax found, it seems like cljr-find-usages has the content of the popup you saw, but the popup - a small overlay at the cursor position, when pointing to a var - eludes me. It seems like popup.el can maybe provide some of the functionality you are talking about, but it does not seem to be available in my pretty vanilla spacemacs configuration.
