Thank you. I moved the package definition outside the end of the file,
changed @code{free-keys} into Free-keys (sorry, I couldn't help) and
applied it.

No, it isn't.

I'm saying that we should not mix the Guix variable name (here
`emacs-free-keys') and the name of the project (here `free-keys'). The
description is more about the project than the Guix variable. Therefore,
we should reference the former, not the latter. As a consequence,
@code{free-keys} is better than @code{emacs-free-keys} because we're not
referencing Guix code.

Also, on a more personal POV, I think we're using emphasis too much in
descriptions as it hinders readability. In particular, @code markup
should really be reserved to symbols (variables, functions…) rather than
project names. Capitalization is much more elegant in this case.

Regards,
