#60 I guess I'm the only person in the world who actually uses that key as intended (or enough that I'd miss it if it was gone), and no it's not quite the same as a right-click 
But it's pretty rare still, the most common use I can think of is in Explorer: - Select a file with the keyboard (arrow keys or typing the first few letters) - Press the Menu key to open the file's right-click menu A right-click would open the same menu, but I'd have to move the mouse over the file first ... so this saves time  ____________________ |

I don't use it for anything.
Maybe someday I will remap it to an IME-specific key to make typing Japanese easier. Needing multiple keys to switch input formats is kind of a hassle. めんどくさい。 ____________________ |

Originally posted by Terra Of course, if you look at a Commodore keyboard, there's a lot of things that would be hard to get used to for someone like me who has only used modern keyboards- like, a "CONTROL" key instead of tab, for example... ____________________ |

Stigandr 1440  Some say they're what landed at Roswell in 1947, and that their right eye sees infrared light. All we know is, they're called The Stigandr. Level: 77  Posts: 835/1441 EXP: 4019730 For next: 171399 Since: 07-21-07 Since last post: 1.5 years Last activity: 1.5 years

Never used it. Likely never will. Edit: Also, Waffle, you're starting to sound more like an angry old man. ____________________ I swim through a sea of stars, without looking back to shore. Faster than light, bending time. Forever Wherever |

| As I have an apple keyboard, I physically cannot use this key as it is not present.
I do use it on the ancient pentium PC I have that no longer has a working PS/2 port for a mouse  |

Post #4253 · 08-09-11 07:13:24 PM Originally posted by SankyI need to get around to doing that someday. I never use it, so.
I'd love to have some additional function keys though, that no programs will respond to normally, so I could just map them to whatever. ____________________ |

Originally posted by legacyme3 Pretty much this. I've never pressed it before, not even by accident. I probably should map something useful to it, then.  |
