B.1 ALPHAbook 1 (Alpha Only)
• Two keys are mislabeled. The KP_Subtract and KP_Add are engraved in grey
on the minus (-) and plus (+) keys. However, the 0 (zero) and P keys actually
provide the function for KP- and KP+, respectively.
• NUMLOCK is generated by SHIFT-NUMLOCK, and KP_ENTER is generated
by RIGHT-ALT-ENTER.
• There is no way to generate directly RIGHT-ALT, RIGHT-COMPOSE, or
LEFT-COMPOSE. You can provide the function of the compose key by
pressing LEFT ALT-SPACE.
• You can generate missing function keys by pressing CAPS LOCK-Fn.
Pressing CAPS LOCK adds a value of 10 to the function key (Fn) that you
also press. For example, pressing CAPS LOCK-F1 generates the F11 key;
pressing CAPS LOCK-F2 generates the F12 key.
• Use the following table to help you determine which keys to press to provide
the function of the corresponding LK-style key.
