@cindex keymaps, standard

In this section we list some of the more general keymaps.  Many of
these exist when Emacs is first started, but some are loaded only when
the respective feature is accessed.

There are many other, more specialized, maps than these; in particular
those associated with major and minor modes.  The minibuffer uses
several keymaps (@pxref{Completion Commands}).  For more details on
keymaps, @pxref{Keymaps}.

@c Don't list individual major mode keymaps here, only more general things.
@c Only add vindex for things not covered elsewhere in this manual.
@c Don't add xrefs to things covered in {Keymaps}.

It has the same keymap in its value cell and in its function cell.

@item input-decode-map
The keymap for translating keypad and function keys.@*
If there are none, then it contains an empty sparse keymap.
@xref{Translation Keymaps}.

@item key-translation-map
A keymap for translating keys.  This one overrides ordinary key
bindings, unlike @code{local-function-key-map}.  @xref{Translation
Keymaps}.

@item kmacro-keymap
@vindex kmacro-keymap
A sparse keymap for keys that follows the @kbd{C-x C-k} prefix search.@*
@xref{Keyboard Macros,,, emacs, The GNU Emacs Manual}.

@item menu-bar-file-menu
@itemx menu-bar-edit-menu
@itemx menu-bar-options-menu
@itemx global-buffers-menu-map

@vindex global-buffers-menu-map
@vindex menu-bar-tools-menu
@vindex menu-bar-help-menu
These keymaps display the main, top-level menus in the menu bar.@*
Some of them contain sub-menus.  For example, the Edit menu contains
@code{menu-bar-search-menu}, etc.  @xref{Menu Bar}.
@ignore
TODO list all submenus?
There are probably too many, and it would not be useful to do so, eg:
The Edit menu includes @code{yank-menu}, @code{menu-bar-search-menu},
@code{menu-bar-replace-menu}, @code{menu-bar-goto-menu},
@code{menu-bar-bookmark-map}, and @code{facemenu-menu}.
There is also mule-menu-keymap, set-coding-system-map,
setup-language-environment-map, describe-language-environment-map, 
menu-bar-epatch-menu, menu-bar-ediff-merge-menu, menu-bar-ediff-menu, etc.
@end ignore

@item minibuffer-inactive-mode-map

@xref{Mode Line Format}.

@item mode-specific-map
The keymap for characters following @kbd{C-c}.  Note, this is in the
global map.  This map is not actually mode-specific: its name was chosen
to be informative in @kbd{C-h b} (@code{display-bindings}),
where it describes the main use of the @kbd{C-c} prefix key.

@c FIXME - don't mention this one?
@item mouse-appearance-menu-map
@vindex mouse-appearance-menu-map
A sparse keymap used for the @kbd{S-mouse-1} key.

@item query-replace-map
@itemx multi-query-replace-map
A sparse keymap used for responses in @code{query-replace} and related
commands; also for @code{y-or-n-p} and @code{map-y-or-n-p}.  The functions
that use this map do not support prefix keys; they look up one event at a
time.  @code{multi-query-replace-map} extends @code{query-replace-map}
for multi-buffer replacements.  @xref{Search and Replace, query-replace-map}.

@item x-alternatives-map
@vindex x-alternatives-map
@findex x-setup-function-keys
