I cannot speak for the version of Emacs you are using, but Freemacs for
the IBM PC has, in addition to C-h t, a useful little gem:  C-h a.  It
prompts you for a string, and then returns all the command names with
that string as a substring.  It also has C-h b which will create a
buffer showing all the key bindings.  Together, the result is a
reasonably complete help facility.
