A- is the Alt key. Unless you have changed it from the default from within Emacs, that is Alt on the keyboard.

If you are using a mac, A- corresponds to the command key, or the so-called Apple key. For one example of a key binding defined this way, see my answer to another question here.

A- on a windows keyboard it must be the Windows key On a Mac it is the cmd but I prefer to let cmd be the meta. So I add this line in my .emacs

(setq mac-option-key-is-meta nil)
(setq mac-command-key-is-meta t)
(setq mac-command-modifier 'meta)
(setq mac-option-modifier nil)
