Texas Instruments 3000 - Manual (Page 8)

Preface
Keyboard keys are listed several ways in this manual, depending on the number of keys
you must press to produce a character or function. For example, some key fronts on the
keyboard are labeled with blue to indicate their use only in conjunction with the Fn key.
The text refers to these keys according to their function, preceded by the additional key
you must also press. Your application programs may use various other key combinations;
refer to your application program documentation for specific information.
The word floppy is used in this manual to refer to diskettes, microdiskettes, disks, and
other terms commonly used to describe a removable, nonvolatile, magnetic-media
diskette. The words disk and diskette are used in direct quotations, for example, in
describing a displayed error message, Setup Program menu, and like items.
