SUMMARY
=======

COMMAND key+<number> assignments are reserved to mimic function key
operations on the Macintosh.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Many Macintosh computers do not have keyboards containing function keys (F1
-F15). In order to give these machines the same functionality, the
COMMAND+<number> key combination is typically reserved.

This means that in FoxPro for Macintosh, these key assignments, if used as
shortcut keys in menus, will yield a key label and key text of F<#>.

Additional query words: vFoxMac FoxMac keystroke hot hotkey access key accelerator
