 =head1 Usage
 
+=head2 X<the_keyboard>Keyboard/Keymappings
+
+The keyboard works quite similar to other programs: If a widget (e.g. a text entry) has the focus,
+you can enter and edit text there.
+
+Special key bindings apply to the playing area. It needs to be focused to
+work. If it doesn't have the focus, it will be tinted in red, in that case
+you can focus it by clicking into it.
+
+The following keys are available in the playing area:
+
