Typewriter Keys; Power Indicators - Toshiba Satellite A110 Series User Manual

Typewriter keys

The typewriter keys, produce the upper- and lower-case letters, numbers,
punctuation marks, and special symbols that appear on the screen.
There are some differences, however, between using a typewriter and using
a computer keyboard:
■
Letters and numbers produced in computer text vary in width. Spaces,
which are created by a space character may also vary depending on line
justification and other factors.
■
The lowercase l (el) and the number 1 (one) are not interchangeable on
computers as they are on a typewriter.
■
The uppercase O (oh) and the 0 (zero) are not interchangeable.
■
The Caps Lock function key locks only the alphabetic characters in
uppercase while the shift lock on a typewriter places all keys in the
shifted position.
■
The Shift keys, the Tab key, and the BkSp (backspace) key perform the
same function as their typewriter counterparts but also have special
computer functions.
