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.
