Appendix A: Key Mapping and Service Icons
Timbuktu Keyboard Mapping
Controlling a Macintosh computer is usually identical to controlling a Windows computer. However, Win-
dows and Macintosh keyboards are slightly different. The following table shows how keys are mapped
across platforms.
When you control a Macintosh, the Map Ctrl-> Cmd option appears on the system menu in the screen-
sharing window. (To open the system menu, click the Control icon in the upper-left corner of the screen-
sharing window.) If you enable this option, pressing
CTRL on your Windows keyboard will send the equiv-
alent of a COMMAND keystroke to the Macintosh.
Note: If you type a keyboard shortcut while you are controlling another computer and the Control win-
dow is active, the shortcut is carried out only on the remote computer.
Icon Legend
Timbuktu’s service icons allow you to quickly identify its many services.
The Timbuktu icon is displayed in the system tray on the Windows taskbar whenever Timbuktu is run-
ning. When another Timbuktu user connects to your computer, the standard Timbuktu icon alternates
with a service icon indicating the service in use. If the service icon is in color, the Timbuktu connection
is active. If the service icon is gray, the connection has been closed.
