Key	Description
Function keys	The twelve function keys along the top of the keyboard are used
	to perform designated tasks. For example, in many applications,
	F1 is the Help key. The task associated with each function key
	may vary from one application to the next.
Escape key	The Esc (Escape) key is used to cancel commands.
Print Screen key	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.
Operator keys	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 operates
	the same way as on a typewriter; it is used to produce capital
	letters or special symbols such as @ and $.
Windows key	The key with the Windows logo displays the Windows Start
	menu; it is the equivalent of clicking the Start button on the
	taskbar. See “Combinations and Functions with the Windows
	Key” on page 34.
Fn key	The Fn key is used in combination with other keys to issue
	commands. See “Combinations and Functions with the Fn Key”
	on page 36.
Applications key	The Applications key displays a shortcut menu of context-
	sensitive choices. Pressing this key is the equivalent of clicking
	the right mouse button.
