Straight quotes are bound to Shift+" in the standard setting (cua).

I use the cua bindings (& Windows Vista). On my present keyboard, & I
think previous ones, the single & double quotes use the same key, "
being Shift+', but LyX interprets this as smart double quotes. The
single quote is not interpreted as a smart quote: Alt+Shift+' gives a
smart single quote.
I see in cua.bind:
\bind "~S-M-quotedbl" "quote-insert single"
\bind "~S-C-quotedbl" "self-insert \""
What does ~ signify here?
