56 This is used in `help-with-tutorial'. The information includes
57 the key sequence that no longer has a default binding, the
58 default binding and the current binding. It also tells in what
59 keymap the new binding has been done and how to access the
60 function in the default binding from the keyboard.
62 For `cua-mode' key bindings that try to combine CUA key bindings
63 with default Emacs bindings information about this is shown.
65 VALUE should have either of these formats:
68 \(current-binding KEY-FUN DEF-FUN KEY WHERE)
71 KEY is a key sequence whose standard binding has been changed
72 KEY-FUN is the actual binding for KEY
73 DEF-FUN is the standard binding of KEY
74 WHERE is a text describing the key sequences to which DEF-FUN is
75 bound now (or, if it is remapped, a key sequence

90 When CUA mode is enabled, you can use C-z, C-x, C-c, and C-v to
91 undo, cut, copy, and paste in addition to the normal Emacs
92 bindings. The C-x and C-c keys only do cut and copy when the
93 region is active, so in most cases, they do not conflict with the
94 normal function of these prefix keys.
96 If you really need to perform a command which starts with one of
97 the prefix keys even when the region is active, you have three
99 - press the prefix key twice very quickly (within 0.2 seconds),
100 - press the prefix key and the following key within 0.2 seconds, or
101 - use the SHIFT key with the prefix key, i.e. C-S-x or C-S-c."))
