[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

The first line of the last message should have said 'in addition to' instead of 'rather than', In the following expanded table, Key is the number of pseudoevents with configurable and fixed key bindings.  Gen is the number of General pseudoevents. (Current, from config-main.def.)

File          Menu                            Key  Gen

My initial experiment with adding a fake event and binding in the user config-keys.cfg does not affect existing versions.  It appears to be completely ignored and does not appear on the list of configurable keys in the dialog.
