Notes for Mac OS X users

  • Mac OS X uses Cmd instead of Ctrl as the accelerator key. Throughout this page, Ctrl/Cmd will be used.
  • Mac OS X uses Return instead of Enter. Throughout this page, Enter/Return will be used.
  • The function keys (F1 through F12) are usually only applicable to Windows and Linux, since Mac OS X reserves these for other functions.
