Alternate Graphic
AltGr (also Alt Graph) is a modifier key found on computer keyboards. It is primarily used to type characters that are used less frequently in the language that the keyboard is designed for, such as foreign currency symbols, List of typographical symbols and punctuation marks, typographic marks and precomposed character, accented letters. The AltGr key is used to access a third and a fourth grapheme for most keys. Most are accented variants of the letters on the keys, but some are additional List of typographical symbols and punctuation marks, symbols and punctuation marks. For example, when the US-International keyboard mapping is active, the key can be used to insert four different characters: * → c (lowercase — first level) * → C (uppercase — second level) * → © (copyright sign — third level) * → ¢ (cent sign — fourth level) Some languages, such as Bengali language, Bengali, use this key when the number of letters of their alphabet is too large for a ...

Option Key
The Option key, , is a modifier key present on Apple keyboards. It is located between the Control key and the Command key on a typical Mac keyboard. There are two Option keys on modern (as of 2020) Mac desktop and notebook keyboards, one on each side of the space bar. (As of 2005, some laptops had only one, in order to make room for the arrow keys.) Apple Inc., Apple commonly uses the symbol to represent the Option key. From 1980 to 1984, on the Apple II, this key was known as the closed apple key or the solid apple key, and had a black line drawing of a filled-in on it. Since the 1990s, "Alt" has sometimes appeared on the key as well, for use as an Alt key with non-Mac software, such as Unix and Windows programs; as of 2017, the newest Apple keyboards such as the Magic Keyboard (Mac), Magic Keyboard no longer include the "Alt" label. The Option key in a Mac operating system functions differently from the Alt key under other Unix-like systems or Microsoft Windows. It is not us ...

Dead Key
A dead key is a special kind of modifier key on a mechanical typewriter, or computer keyboard, that is typically used to attach a specific diacritic to a base letter (alphabet), letter. The dead key does not generate a (complete) grapheme, character by itself, but modifies the character generated by the key struck immediately after. Thus, a dedicated key is not needed for each possible combination of a diacritic and a letter, but rather only one dead key for each diacritic is needed, in addition to the normal base letter keys. For example, if a keyboard mapping (such as US international) has a dead key for the circumflex, , the character can be generated by first pressing and then . Usually, the diacritic itself can be generated as a free-standing character by pressing the dead key followed by ''space''; so a caret (free-standing circumflex) can be typed by pressing and then . Mechanical typewriters The dead key is mechanical in origin, and "dead" means without movement. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
AZERTY
AZERTY ( ) is a specific layout for the characters of the Latin alphabet on typewriter keys and computer keyboards. The layout takes its name from the first six letters to appear on the first row of alphabetical keys; that is, ( ). Like other European keyboard layouts, it is modelled on the English-language QWERTY layout. It is used in France and Belgium, though both countries have their own national variation on the layout. The competing layouts devised for French (e.g. the 1907 ZHJAY layout, Claude Marsan's 1976 layout, the 2002 Dvorak-fr, and the 2005 BÉPO layout) have obtained only limited recognition, although the latter has been included in the 2019 French keyboard layout standard. History The AZERTY layout appeared in France in the last decade of the 19th century as a variation on American QWERTY typewriters. Its exact origin is unknown. It was more successful than its contemporaries (e.g. the French ZHJAYS layout created by Albert Navarre in the early 20th cen ...

Netbook
A netbook is a small-sized laptop computer; they were primarily sold from 2007 until around 2013, designed mostly as a means of accessing the Internet and being significantly less expensive than regular-sized laptops. At their inception in late 2007, as smaller-than-typical laptop computers optimized for low weight and low cost, netbooks began appearing without certain then-standard laptop features (such as an optical drive), and with less computing power than in full-sized laptops. They ranged in size from about 5" screen diagonal to 12", with a typical weight of about (), and were often significantly less expensive than other laptops. Soon after their appearance, netbooks grew in size and features, and converged with smaller laptops and subnotebooks until the specifications were so similar that there was little distinction between the devices. At their peak, the low cost gave them a significant portion of the laptop computer market. When Windows 7 released, netbook manuf ...
