The file consists of one or more sections. Each section starts with
a line that identifies the type of section. The possible sections are:

<dl compact="compact">
<dt><code>#info</code></dt>
<dd>Key bindings for Info windows.
The start of this section is indicated by a line containing just
<code>#info</code> by itself. If this is the first section in the source
file, the <code>#info</code> line can be omitted. The rest of this section
consists of lines of the form:

<div class="example">
<pre class="example"><var>string</var> whitespace <var>action</var> [ whitespace [ # comment ] ] newline
</pre></div>

Whitespace is any sequence of one or more spaces and/or tabs. Comment
is any sequence of any characters, excluding newline. <var>string</var> is
the key sequence which invokes the action. <var>action</var> is the name of
an Info command. The characters in <var>string</var> are interpreted
literally or prefixed by a caret (<code>^</code>) to indicate a control
character. A backslash followed by certain characters specifies input
keystrokes as follows:

<dl compact="compact">
<dt><code>\b</code></dt>
<dd>Backspace
</dd>
<dt><code>\e</code></dt>
<dd>Escape (ESC)
</dd>
<dt><code>\n</code></dt>
<dd>Newline
</dd>
<dt><code>\r</code></dt>
<dd>Return
</dd>
<dt><code>\t</code></dt>
<dd>Tab
</dd>
<dt><code>\ku</code></dt>
<dd>Up arrow
</dd>
<dt><code>\kd</code></dt>
<dd>Down arrow
</dd>
<dt><code>\kl</code></dt>
<dd>Left arrow
</dd>
<dt><code>\kr</code></dt>
<dd>Right arrow
</dd>
<dt><code>\kU</code></dt>
<dd>Page Up
</dd>
<dt><code>\kD</code></dt>
<dd>Page Down
</dd>
<dt><code>\kh</code></dt>
<dd>HOME
</dd>
<dt><code>\ke</code></dt>
<dd>END
</dd>
<dt><code>\kx</code></dt>
<dd>Delete (DEL)
</dd>
<dt><code>\m<var>x</var></code></dt>
<dd>Meta-<var>x</var> where <var>x</var> is any character as described above.
</dd>
</dl>

Backslash followed by any other character indicates that character is to
be taken literally. Characters which must be preceded by a backslash
include caret, space, tab, and backslash itself.

</dd>
<dt><code>#echo-area</code></dt>
<dd>Key bindings for the echo area.
The start of this section is indicated by a line containing just
<code>#echo-area</code> by itself. The rest of this section has a syntax
identical to that for the key definitions for the Info area, described
above.

</dd>
<dt><code>#var</code></dt>
<dd>Variable initializations. The start of this section is indicated by a
line containing just <code>#var</code> by itself. Following this line is a
list of variable assignments, one per line. Each line consists of a
variable name (see <a href="Variables.html">Variables</a>) followed by <code>=</code> followed by a
value. There may be no white space between the variable name and the
<code>=</code>, and all characters following the <code>=</code>, including white
space, are included in the value.
</dd>
</dl>

Blank lines and lines starting with <code>#</code> are ignored, except for
the special section header lines.

Key bindings defined in the <samp>.infokey</samp> file take precedence over GNU
Info&rsquo;s default key bindings, whether or not &lsquo;<samp>--vi-keys</samp>&rsquo; is used. A
default key binding may be disabled by overriding it in the <samp>.infokey</samp>
file with the action <code>invalid</code>. In addition, all default
key bindings can be disabled by adding this line anywhere in the
relevant section:

<div class="example">
<pre class="example">#stop
</pre></div>

This will cause GNU Info to ignore all the default key commands for that
section.

Beware: <code>#stop</code> can be dangerous. Since it disables all default
key bindings, you must supply enough new key bindings to enable all
necessary actions. Failure to bind any key to the <code>quit</code> command,
for example, can lead to frustration.

The order in which key bindings are defined in the <samp>.infokey</samp> file is
not important, except that the command summary produced by the
<code>get-help-window</code> command only displays the first key that
is bound to each command.
