See the Emacs manual, node `User Input'. This is the standard Emacs key
notation, which is good to learn.

`S-' means press and hold the Shift key.
`C-' means press and hold the Control key.
`M-' means press and hold the meta key, which is typically the ALT key.
`SPC' means hit the space bar.
`S-SPC' means press and hold `Shift while hitting the space bar.

The `next' and `prior' keys are typically labeled `Page Down' and `Page Up',
respectively, on your keyboard. `C-next' means press and hold the Control key
while hitting `next'.

Start by learning to walk, before you try to run. You need to spend some time
reading the Emacs doc. Start by following the Emacs tutorial: `C-h t' or menu
