1. In (emacs) Spelling:
'<ESC>-<TAB>' should instead be '<ESC> <TAB>' (as it is elsewhere in the
manual). No modifier syntax.
2. In (emacs) Editing Binary Files:
'C-h a hexl-<RET>' should be something else. The space after C-h and
after a doesn't mean type a SPC char, but you expect readers to see
hexl- as meaning type those 5 chars. At least add a space before <RET>,
but even that isn't a real fix. The notation -<...> should be used only
following a modifier, as in M-<right>.
3. Same problem as #2, in (emacs) Mac/GNUstep Events.
'M-x ns-service-<TAB>'
4. (emacs) Windows Keyboard.
Is `W' introduced anywhere as a modifier key? What is 'W-<SPC>'?
5. Throuhout the Emacs manual, sometimes it's C-<BREAK>, sometimes it's
C-<Break>. (And I don't mean in code, e.g., as an arg to `kbd'.) Is
this correct? The contexts seem to be the same/similar: "pressing" or
"using" such a key sequence. There are other, similar such seeming
inconsistencies / problems with other modified function keys.
