About Client Keyboard Support

The client has two keyboard modes: Enhanced keyboard support, for extra
options and easier ways to use special keys such as function keys in Windows
applications, and Standard keyboard support, as used by older client versions.
The user selects the preferred keyboard mode using the Keyboard menu during a
client session.

Enhanced keyboard support comprises a set of three features that can be turned
on and off using the client’s Keyboard menu.

Send Special Keys Unchanged enables the user to send keys to remote
sessions without additional keystrokes.

Use Command Key for Control Characters enables the user to send
Command-character key combinations as CTRL+character key
combinations.

Use Command-Option for Alt Characters enables the user to send
Command-Option-key combinations as ALT+key combinations.
