No, unfortunately there is no such thing. The best alternative for this
is probably to just open the header. Most of the functions/argumets/etc

Not sure what you mean by "schema" in the Oracle content. It could mean
the "database namespace" (Section 14.1.8) or the "statements that create
tables/etc" (Section 3.4 and Chapter 13).
