<p>
The <gui>Screen Reader Modifier Key(s)</gui> combo box allows you to select which
key or keys will serve as the Cthulhu Modifier. The available options are:
</p>
<list>
<item>
<p>
<gui>KP_Insert</gui> (the same key as the <key>0</key> on the
numeric keypad)
</p></item>
<item><p><gui>Insert</gui></p></item>

<title>The Key Bindings Table</title>
<p>
The key bindings table provides a list of <app>Cthulhu</app> operations
and the keys that are bound to them.
</p>
<list>
<item>
<p>
The <gui>Command</gui> column contains a description of the
<app>Cthulhu</app> command to be performed.
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>
The <gui>Key Binding</gui> column contains the keyboard shortcut currently
assigned to the <app>Cthulhu</app> command. You can modify the value of
this column by pressing <key>Return</key>, pressing the keys for the
new binding, and pressing <key>Return</key> again.
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>
The <gui>Modified</gui> column serves both as an indicator to what
has been changed and as a way to restore the default bindings
associated with that command.
</p>
</item>
</list>
<p>
Beneath the list of <app>Cthulhu</app> keybindings, you will find a group
of "unbound" commands. These are commands which we feel will be very
useful for some users, but not needed by most users. Rather than "use
up" a keystroke for such commands, we have left them unassigned by
default. At the end of the list are the braille bindings, for use with
a refreshable braille display.
