   Well blimey! I guess I should have written the message a bit more
   clearly.  Thanks for this, as it could be useful later on.  What I
   should have asked was:
   I can't seem to find the syntax for using the windows key as a
   modifier... if I want to do:
   definekey top <WindowsKey>-s vsplit
   What's the syntax for <WindowsKey>? I can never recall if it's
   Mod4/Hyper/Super/Mega/Ultra ... what's the proper version in RP?

There is no syntax for "<WindowsKey>", RP binds actions to keysyms.
Specifically, keysyms written in the Emacs keyboard macro format. 
If said key is bound to Hyper_L, for example, then you want

   definekey top H-s vsplit
