Spectrum keyboard map

This index contains the tokens on the keyboard and how to obtain them (the mode - , , , or - and which shift key where appropriate).

On the PC keyboard, the left shift key is configured as Caps Shift and the right shift key is configured as Symbol Shift. As of version 6.0, you can use the Ctrl key for Symbol shift.

The extended mode key on later Spectrums is mapped to the APPS key (next to the right Windows key).
