?? foo
at the Maxima input prompt displays the list of documented
items (functions & variables) which contain the string "foo".

??
alone displays every item in the index (about 2000 items).

The html documentation
(e.g. http://maxima.sourceforge.net/docs/manual/en/maxima.html)
has an alphabetical index.

The documentation index lists almost all of the stuff in src/
(i.e. the built-in core) and a lot of stuff in share/ (add-ons).
