Right, I’ll change this.

Hm. Would be my first texinfo contribution. But yes, I’ll see.

Agreed, but the current implementation accepts arbitrary key codes,
doesn’t it? So you could e.g. bind keycode 65 if you don’t need letter A
anymore ;-). Do you know a way that would allow entering key sequences
instead of keycodes easily? I mean something like "\C-h" instead of 8. I
haven’t found proper examples for this.

Cool.

Makes sense. I’ll focus on the jingle version when a (almost) working
alpha/beta is available.
