When a routine I have written is expecting a character & instead sees
(e.g.) one of the function keys on the keyboard, it complains that it
has seen a non-character input event.  Presumably, therefore, Emacs
has some way of recognizing such events.  Where is the documentation
for that?  "Apropos" yields nothing, and info merely admits that they
exist.  I know how to bind commands to those keys, but only thru
chitchat in newsgroups (monkey see, monkey do).  What do I do if I am
writing Elisp code and want it to do something other than beep when it
encounters an f1?
