   operations like this and available on more system?

Do not forget that this is common documentation for the Emacs and the
standalone Info reader.  When using the standalone reader (or `emacs -nw'),
S-TAB will usually not work (actually, it will usually be equivalent
to plain TAB).  M-tab may not work either, because it still might get
"stolen" by the Window Manager.  So I would keep mentioning M-TAB as
the main key, but mention ESC-TAB and C-M-i as further alternatives in
addition to S-TAB.

Sincerely,

Luc.
