None of my Macs came with a keyboard, so I went to a thrift store nearby to
see if I could find one. Just my luck, they had one: an Apple Extended
Keyboard. It works fine with both my Poer Mac 7300/200 and my Mac IIfx, and
I LOVE the key feel... it is even better than my favourite PC keyboard, the
Gateway AnyKey programmable. However, I can't quite figure out how to use
some of the special keys. For example:

How does one switch between the num lock and clear keys?
how does one switch between the help and ins keys? or the Del and the little
arrow with an "X", whatever that means?
How does one access the "Alt" and "Option" modes on that key?
Or, switching between the F12-F15 function keys, and the functions also
labelled on them: "Print screen", "Scroll lock", and "Pause"?
Also, the function keys F1-F4 have "undo", "cut", "copy", and "paste" under
them...  how do I use these functions?

Does anyone have a user's manual for this or similar keyboards? Or can point
me to a webpage or something that has a reference on these keys? Any
assistance would be greatly appreciated. I feel like an idiot because I
can't figure this out - the Mac is supposed to be SO SIMPLE to use... yeah,
right!
