It means that there is no text or program assigned to the pressed
key; more precisely, that the Save/Get associated with that key in
the KBD file is uninitialized. Ordinary KBD-file Save/Gets are in
the form @X, where X is a letter or number, but the same error
results if you try to execute an uninitialized ampersand-type
Save/Get, &X, or, in XPL, a numbered Save/Get (e.g., if your program
attempts  without first assigning content with ). In
Xy3 the error message is "No Save Get".
