    Keybindings are combinations of keystrokes which tell an application to
    run a task.  These can greatly speed-up the user's interactions
    with an application.  Some of the most common ones are
    <keycombo>
      <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>
      <keycap>s</keycap>
    </keycombo>
    to save a file or
    <keycombo>
      <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>
      <keycap>q</keycap>
    </keycombo>
    to quit the application.  <application>Gnumeric</application> also
    comes with keybindings to make your spreadsheet experience faster.
  </para>

  <para>
    Normally, keybindings are next to a command in a menu.  For
    example, if 
    <menuchoice>
      <guimenuitem>Save</guimenuitem>
    </menuchoice>
    has
    <keycombo>
      <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>
      <keycap>s</keycap>
    </keycombo>
    next to it, that means that
    <keycombo>
      <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>
      <keycap>s</keycap>
    </keycombo>
    can be typed at the same time to save your file.  However, some
    keystrokes aren't listed in the menus.  They are as follows:
