 Iconify the selected Emacs frame (@code{iconify-or-deiconify-frame}).
+When typed on an Emacs frame's icon, deiconify instead.

 The normal meaning of @kbd{C-z}, to suspend Emacs, is not useful under
 a graphical display that allows multiple applications to operate
 simultaneously in their own windows, so Emacs gives @kbd{C-z} a
 different binding in that case.
