Equivalent cross-platform keys
Because of inherent differences between Windows and Macintosh keyboards, keys on Windows and Macintosh computers don't always correspond directly.
This can create confusion, because Lingo often uses the same term to refer to corresponding keys on Windows and Macintosh computers, even though the key's name differs on the two platforms.
The following table lists Lingo elements that refer to specific keys and the keys they represent on each platform.
