Thanks. Didn't know about that.

Yes, I was wondering about keys like these <open>, <remap>, etc.
that emacs talk about sometimes.

When I click on the open button in the tool bar, the minibuffer shows
'tool-bar open-file'.

Talking about these peculiar (to me) 'keys', I was wondering if there
are
some keyboards that have keys like <open>, etc.
