[QUOTE="remain, post: 465997, member: 23182"] No no, the "up arrow" is the Shift key! ;p Here are all the symbols for the keys that are used in the menus: [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v32/dhtns/misc/mac_key_symbols.png[/IMG] Personally, I wished Apple would put both the name and the symbol for each key. I mean, some of the symbols are fairly obvious, but some are really cryptic. For instance, look at the symbol for Enter (not Return). Would you be able to guess that that's Enter?! It's good that on the new [URL="http://images.apple.com/keyboard/images/gallery/wired_1_20070813.jpg"]Apple Keyboards[/URL], the Command key, one of the most important keys, is identified both by its name and its symbol (the "cloverleaf"), whereas before, the key was only identified by an apple and the "cloverleaf." Obviously, apple + cloverleaf = command, right? o_O If only they did this with all the keys on the new Keyboard. [/QUOTE]
