1-10 Introducing Your NEC Versa
!
Control keys —
Ctrl
,
Alt,
Fn
, and
Shift
are controls used in conjunction with other
keys to change their functions. To use control keys, press and hold the control key
while pressing another key. For example, “press
Ctrl c
” means to hold down the
Ctrl
key and type the letter c. How the key combination works depends on the
application you are running.

Typewriter keys — The typewriter keys (also called alphanumeric keys) are used to
enter text and characters. Keys with blue printing on them behave differently when
combined with control keys or the
Fn
key.
