   Hi.  I could not find the text that you refer where you say that it

   My docstring of event-modifiers is

   event-modifiers is a compiled Lisp function in `subr'.
   (event-modifiers event)

   Returns a list of symbols representing the modifier keys in event
   event.
   The elements of the list may include `meta', `control',
   `shift', `hyper', `super', `alt', `click', `double', `triple', `drag',
   and `down'.

What version of Emacs are you using?  It definitely is not documented
in 21.3, but it is documented in current CVS and hence will be
documented in the next release.  Of course, Richard suggested that the
actual behavior should be changed, in which case that text will have
to be removed once more.  I do not know whether we want to change the
behavior before the next release, however.

I changed the docstring on July 31, 2004, with Richard's OK.  I
changed the Elisp manual on August 6, 2004.

Sincerely,

Luc.
