The Keyboard
One way you communicate with your computer is by using the key
board. The keys let you tell Ihe computer what you want it to do, and
let you answer any messages or questions the computer displays on
the screen. These messages or questions are cailed prompts.
You do not need to be an accomplished typist to use the Commodore
128 keyboard. You only need to know the general keyboard layout.
Work at the keyboard as much as you like. You won't hurt the com
puter by typing, and you will learn a good deal from the experience.
In addition to the standard typewriter
keys, the Commodore 128
keyboard has a number of
other keys. These include
special keys located
on the main keyboard,
a row of keys located
above the main key
board, and a sepa
rate numeric keypad.
