<hr size="4">
<p>The Apple //e keyboard was very similar to the PC keyboard, and most keys
correspond directly between the two keyboards. However, there were a few keys
on the Apple //e that are not on the PC; these are described below:</p>
<p><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Reset</span>:<br>
On the Apple //e, you could usually press Control+Reset to interrupt a running
program. With the Apple //e Emulator, you may emulate this key sequence with
<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Ctrl+Break</span>.
</p>
<p><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Open Apple:</span><br>
The Open Apple key was first introduced in the Apple //e, and was later renamed
to the Apple key. It was similar to
<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Ctrl</span>
and
<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Alt</span>
on a PC, in that it was used in conjunction with other keys. This key is
emulated with the PC's left
<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Alt</span>
key, which is in the same position as the Open Apple key on the original //e.
</p>
<p><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Solid Apple:</span><br>
The Solid Apple key was introduced on the Apple //e and later renamed to the
Option key. This key is emulated with the PC's right
<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Alt</span>
key, which is in the same position as the Solid Apple key on the original //e.
</p>
<p><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Numeric Keypad:</span><br>
The numeric keypad, introduced on the Extended Keyboard //e, is emulated
through the PC's numeric keypad. To enable this feature, turn on
<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Num Lock </span>and make sure the joystick
emulation is configured to use something other than the keyboard.
</p>
<p><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Pause:</span><br>
Pressing the PC's
<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Pause</span>
key will pause emulation. Press
<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Pause</span>
again to resume emulation.</p>
<p><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Scroll Lock:</span><br>
Holding down the PC's
<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Scroll
Lock</span>
key temporarily sets the emulation to full speed (i.e. unthrottled).<br>
NOTE:&nbsp; The status of the PC's
<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Scroll Lock</span>
LED is meaningless.&nbsp; The emulator will only run full-speed while the
<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Scroll Lock</span>
key is pressed down.</p>
<P><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Shift+Insert:</SPAN><BR>
Paste text from Windows' clipboard. Text gets fed a character at a time to the
Apple's keyboard hardware. The 'CR+LF' combination&nbsp;gets converted to CR.</P>
<P>
<span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Function Keys
2006-07-08 15:41:03 +00:00
F1-F8:</span><br>
These PC function keys correspond to buttons on the <a href="toolbar.html">toolbar</a>.</P>
<p><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Function Key F9:</span><br>
This PC function key will cycle through AppleWin's display modes:&nbsp;
monochrome (custom), color (normal), color (text optimized), color (TV
emulation), etc. This shortcut allows you to switch display modes without going
through the configuration dialog.</p>
<p><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Function Key F10 (or
2006-07-08 15:41:03 +00:00
Ctrl+left mouse button):</span><br>
This PC function key will stop emulating an Apple joystick with the PC's mouse.</p>
