<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+F2</span> or
<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
<span style="font-style: italic;">Left 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
<span style="font-style: italic;">Right 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 gets converted to CR.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">PrintScrn:</span><br>
Save Apple screen to bitmap. The file is saved to the last directory you opened a disk image from. The default resolution is 560x384. Use
<span style="font-style: italic;">Shift+PrintScrn</span>
to save a 280x192 bitmap. The filename
generated depends if you have a floppy inserted in drive-1 or not. If you do then
files are named "{DiskFilename}_#.bmp" otherwise they are named "AppleWin_ScreenShot_#.bmp".</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Shift+PrintScrn:</span><br>
See above.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Ctrl+PrintScrn:</span><br>
Copy the text screen (auto detect 40/80 columns) to the clipboard.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Alt+Enter:</span><br>
Toggle between windowed and full screen video modes. (NB. Will conflict with emulation when doing Open Apple + Enter.)</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Keys 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 F2 + Ctrl:</span><br>
This PC function key combo acts like Ctrl+Reset (instead of power-cycle).</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Key F6 + Ctrl:</span><br>
This PC function key combo toggles between 1x and 2x window sizes.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Key F9:</span><br>
This PC function key will cycle through AppleWin's display modes:
monochrome (custom), Color Monitor, B&W TV, Color TV, etc. This shortcut allows you to switch display modes without going
through the configuration dialog. <br>NB. Use Shift+F9 to reverse-cycle the display modes.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Key F9 + Ctrl + Shift:</span><br>
This PC function key combo will toggle 50% scanline mode</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Key F10 (or Ctrl+left mouse button):</span><br>
This PC function key will stop emulating an Apple joystick with the PC's mouse.<br>
In Pravets 8A emulation mode it servers as Caps Lock and Ctrl+F10 shall
be used to stop emulating an Apple joystick with the PC's mouse.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Function Keys F11-F12:</span><br>
These PC function keys correspond to saving/loading a <a href="savestate.html">save-state</a>
file.</p>
