There are pre-defined constants corresponding to usually non-typable
keys on the keyboard (see key-names). When a Lisp function
calls for a virtual key argument, one of the pre-defined constants is
suitable as an argument value. The word after the hyphen names the
key, although this is an anomalous case. In Windows, vk-cancel refers
to the Pause/Break key when the control key is held down. As an
anomolous case, when Pause/Break is pressed while either of the two
control keys is held down, the key-code argument that is passed to
generic functions such as virtual-key-down will be the value of vk-cancel
instead of the value of vk-pause as it would be otherwise.
