—
the
typewriter and the
calculator.

keyboard offer
advanced calculating and
editing
op-
portunities.

The following descriptions illustrate the groups of
keys
that
make
up the ST Computer keyboard and explain how the keys function.
The letters of the alphabet
on the ST Computer are arranged
exactly the
same as on a typewriter. Press
a key to create a
lowercase letter. If
the [Shift] key is held down,
uppercase letters
result. Pressing the
[Return] key moves the cursor
to the
beginning
of the next line.
