[QUOTE="Cloudane, post: 41911"] Some of the keys baffled me too :p The symbol that looks like (edit: I'll get this right yet!) [code] ----- \ _ [/code] means 'option'. It's on the same key as 'alt', to the left of the apple and hash-like-symbol key which mean command. Alt and option seem to be the same thing, essentially, as do apple and command (correct me if wrong, I'm a newbie too) The one that looks something like _ ^ (not the eject one) is 'Enter'. Apparently Macs often differentiate between "Return" (new line) and "Enter" (confirm a command) whilst PCs generally merge the two. HTH as it took a lot of googling to find out what all the symbols were for :) [/QUOTE]
