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:
67 \(cua-mode)
68 \(current-binding KEY-FUN DEF-FUN KEY WHERE)
70 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
76 for the function it is remapped to)"

94 normal function of these prefix keys.

97 the prefix keys even when the region is active, you have three
98 options:
