[development] Making custom fields available to CCK

> function mymodule_content_extra_fields($type_name)

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Thank you very much!

Is there some API documentation on this? The only thing I've found is this article on Lullabot:
http://www.lullabot.com/articles/great-pretender-making-your-data-act-field

I will definitely look into that. If hook_content_extra_fields() works, then that may not be necessary, but it doesn't hurt to give users more options.

How is that a basic question?
