Num Lock and Right Alt (option)
Dear Cliff and Co.,
Happy Fun Ball was one of Saturday Night Live's spoof commercials.
It was the one in 1991 when Roseanne was the guest host. They talked about
dropping Happy Fun Ball on Iraq. It was one of their silliest.
Anyway, under Windows 95 (sorry I didn't specify before) Num Lock is
Always Always on for me. No matter whether I start it with Num lock truly
on or truly off. Num lock is treated in Executor as always on.
Right-Alt acts like command in applications, but Browser does not treat
it like command. It was Space Madness where I first noticed it, although
other games which use the option key also treat is an a command key.
I will test under DOS in a bit, but I wanted to give observations under
Windows 95 first, since I had them off the top of my head.
