Hi, 


I wonder if it is worth to create a page explaining the Menu / Application, key 
in the same way we have a page for the Meta Key. The content can be similar to 
this (borrowed from the wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menu_key ) 


The Menu key or Application key is a key found on modern Windows-oriented 
keyboards. Its symbol is usually a small icon depicting a pointer hovering 
above a menu. 

The key's primary function is to launch a context menu with the keyboard rather 
than with the usual right-mouse button. It can be used when the right-mouse 
button is not present on a mouse.

The Menu key is sometimes omitted in the interest of space, particularly on 
portable and laptop keyboards; however, a similar functionality can be invoked 
with the Shift+F10 keyboard shortcut. 

Some laptop computers include a "Menu" function on the "Fn" key (usually 
operated by typing Shift+Fn), however, it's not guaranteed the same behaviour 
that the key described above.   <== I haven't found a keyboard like this to try 
it

Cheers,
