Turning it on results in capitals, turning it off results in lowercase characters.

If you just want to type one capital letter, you can just hold the shift key whilst typing that character to produce a capital. [/sayit]

The enter key is useful as pressing it allows you to type on a new line.

On some keyboards there are special keys that may play and pause music, or do other things.

These special keys are triggered when the “fn” button is help, and another key is pressed.

Typically the text on the “fn” key is the same colour as the symbols indicating which keys are special.

When browsing the internet these arrows can be used to scroll an internet page up and down.
