Key Abbreviations

A key abbreviation consists of the @ character followed by an alphabetic letter (uppercase or lowercase), a digit, or the character itself. For example, the abbreviation for the Enter key is @E. The abbreviations are mnemonic; that is, they correspond as much as possible to the actual name of the key. For example, @C is the abbreviation for the Clear key, @A is the abbreviation for the Alt key, and so on. The following table provides a comprehensive list of valid key abbreviations.

Note: When you press a shift key (such as Alt) in combination with another key, the meaning of that key changes. For example, the Alt+Clear keys constitute the Test key; to send the Test keystroke, type @A@C.

The following is a list of key abbreviations.
