When I run a command that prompts for input in the minibuffer, it's annoying to have the text overwritten by supposedly helpful messages like: <pre class="prettyprint"><code>You can run the command 'package-list-packages' with <menu bar> <options> <packages> </code></pre> Is there a way to disable these specifically for menu bar suggestions, which I never use? If not, how can I disable them globally?

Set variable <code>suggest-key-bindings</code> to <code>nil</code>. <pre class="prettyprint"><code>(setq suggest-key-bindings nil) </code></pre>

Is there a way to disable these specifically for menu bar suggestions, which I never use? If not, how can I disable them globally?
