Thanks. If Tab is handled as a function key here is it then not just a 
simple matter of binding S-Tab for the links in the help buffer?

BTW I can not find the information above in the elisp manual. Is it 
there or just in the source code? I remember it has been confusing 
sometimes that the shifted function keys are bound to the unshifted ones.
