m The official name of this key is the Super Key. Micosoft has made it widely known as the Windows key, but still, on some keyboards it does not have the Windows logo. Windows refers to this as the Windows key, while Mac and Linux refer to it as the Super key. ChromeOS repositions this key to where Caps Lock normally is, and calls it the everything button, and the search key on older models. Given the photo shows that it normally is between Control and Alt keys, I figured this would be fine. Tags: Reverted Visual edit |

Alphabetical, numeric, and punctuation keys are used in the same fashion as a typewriter keyboard to enter their respective symbol into a word processing program, text editor, data spreadsheet, or other program. Many of these keys will produce different symbols when modifier keys or shift keys are pressed. The alphabetic characters become uppercase when the shift key or Caps Lock key is depressed. The numeric characters become symbols or punctuation marks when the shift key is depressed. The alphabetical, numeric, and punctuation keys can also have other functions when they are pressed at the same time as some modifier keys.
