-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
   E.g.  ^c       means pressing the Ctrl key and the C key simultaneously
         Esc, ?   means pressing first the Esc key and then the ? key
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Any command can be given either by its key binding - if such exists - or
  by giving the command Esc,x and writing the name of the command, e.g.
  Esc,x,kill-buffer. Emacs can fill in the words for you if you write
  the first few letters and press tabulator.
