The Esc (Escape) key is used to cancel commands
The Print Screen key takes an electronic snapshot
of the screen and places it in the Windows
Clipboard. You can then paste the screen shot into
a document and print it.
Several keys are always used with at least one
other key: Ctrl, Alt, and Shift. When held down
with another key, the Ctrl (Control) and Alt
(Alternate) keys offer another way to give
commands. For example, in many applications,
instead of choosing the Save command from a
menu, you can hold down Ctrl and press S
(referred to as Ctrl+S). The Shift key is used to
produce capital letters or special symbols such as
@ and $.
The key with the Windows logo displays the
Windows 98 Start menu; it's the equivalent of
clicking the Start button on the task bar. See
"Combinations and Functions with the Windows
98 Key" on page 26.
The Fn key is used in combination with other keys
to issue commands. The Fn keys at the left and
right sides both work the same. See
"Combinations and Functions with the Fn Key"
on page 28.
The Applications key displays a shortcut menu of
context-sensitive choices; pressing this key is the
equivalent of clicking the right mouse button.
