The Keyboard
F1 ... F12 function keys
The function keys, not to be confused with Fn, are the 12 keys at the top of
your keyboard.
F1 through F12 are called function keys because they execute
programmed functions when pressed. Used in combination with the Fn key,
keys marked with icons execute specific functions on the computer.
See the section, Soft keys: Fn key combinations, in this chapter. The
function executed by individual keys depends on the software you are
using.
Soft keys: Fn key combinations
The Fn (function) is unique to TOSHIBA computers and is used in
combination with other keys to form soft keys. Soft keys are key
combinations that enable, disable or configure specific features.
