.
Icons
Icons identify ports, dials, and other parts of your computer. The indicator
panel also uses icons to identify the components it is providing information
on.
Keys
The keyboard keys are used in the text to describe many computer
operations. A distinctive typeface identifies the key top symbols as they
appear on the keyboard. For example, ENTER identifies the Enter key.
Key operation
Some operations require you to simultaneously use two or more keys.
We identify such operations by the key top symbols separated by a plus
sign (+). For example, CTRL + C means you must hold down CTRL and at
the same time press C. If three keys are used, hold down the first two and
at the same time press the third.
ABC
When procedures require an action such as clicking an icon
or entering text, the icon’s name or the text you are to type
in is represented in the typeface you see to the left.
