Hi Dave,

What is the difference please, semantically?
According to the TDG:
keycap — The text printed on a key on a keyboard
keysym — The symbolic name of a key on a keyboard
The TDG gives you an example:
Or in other words, roughly spoken: Use keycap if your reader has to press
a key. Use keysym if you "develop" a program and talk about a symbolic
name of a key.
Context, texinfo has @key{PAGEUP} (a label on a key)
but it also has @key{PRIOR} which my keyboard doesn't have.
Which is the more general docbook 4.5 markup please?
I am not sure, but maybe this is an option:
<keycap function="other" otherfunction="...">PRIOR</keycap>
Invent your meaning for the otherfunction attribute.
Emacs is very heavy on key bindings.
M-C-F1 is press ALT, control and F1.
How might that be marked up?
M-x revert-buffer is another command.
It seems a mix between user input and key|sym|cap
There is no 'M' key (stands for META).
