All sorts of syntactic entities can be entered as input in certain contexts, but that doesn't mean they should always be written in @kbd. For instance, you can enter a file name as keyboard input. Any file name can be entered that way. But file names are used in many other contexts too. Thus, in general a file name should not be written in @kbd, not even whe you're talking about giving a file name as keyboard input. Perhaps when you're talking about the act of typing a command containing a file name you might use @kbd for that. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
