{META_KEY} was, and probably still is, a term used in a number of 
important Unix
based utilities like Emacs and EmacsLisp. The specific binding of 
MetaKey depends on the
system, and documentation is meant to be agnostic, thus some have come 
to think that
a particular key on the recently/mostly standardized laptop keyboards 
and 'Microsoft
Compatible' keyboards is what MetaKey means. Nope. It just happens to be 
assigned to
that particular use on those particular keyboards/systems.
