Missing action list in lesskey man page

Hi all,
I've been reading up on "advanced" less(1) features and came across the
lesskey(1) man page. In the COMMAND SECTION of the page I read this:

> The action is the name of the less action, from the list below.

However I cannot see this list of available actions. The only thing
similar I can find is the list of default commands with their actions.
From this I can deduce some available actions, but I'm not sure if those
are all the available actions. Maybe there are some actions that are not
bound by default. I'm also missing a description of what the actions do
(I don't know all the default less(1) commands off the cuff).

Is the action list missing from the lesskey(1) man page, or am I
misunderstanding something?

Greetings,
Richard Ulmer
