C-a means ctrl+a, that is; press ctrl, press a, release a, release
ctrl.

The convention is an artefact from the documentation of the screen
program.  The same convention is used in emacs.  I've changed to ctrl+
notation.  I don't know what notation is standard.  I don't like + or
- or / notation because they imply use of those keys.
