LOOKING AT THE
KEYBOARD
• When you're in typing mode, you can use only the
graphic symbols on the left front of the keys {by
pressing Cr and the appropriate key).
Function Keys
• The four larger keys on the right side
of your keyboard, apart from the
rest of the keys, are special function
keys that let you save typing time by
automatically printing or actually
carrying out a frequently-used com
mand (such as clearing the screen
or RUNning a program) with the
press of one key.
• Each function key can be con
sidered to be two separate keys:
one when pressed aione (f 1, f2, f3
and HELP functions) and a second
when pressed along with ^SjflFii
(f4, f5, f6 and f7).
• The function keys are useful when
you get into BASIC programming.
More information on these keys is
available in the Commodore 16
Intermediate User's Manual and
the Series 264 Programmer's
Reference Guide.
