Subject:RE: Return or Enter for US users From:"Margaret Secara" <margaret -dot- secara -at- alphather -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 28 May 2002 08:48:32 -0700
On my keyboard here and at home, both keys say "Enter". Haven't seen a "Return" since I got rid of my typewriter.
On most of the keyboards I have seen (101 or 105 keys) there is a
Return key and an Enter key. The Enter key usually being on the
10-keypad. Return is normally for the typists, the Enter is normally
for 10-keypad entry.
Otherwise, you could use them interchangeably since they both produce
the same input code.
