Of course! ;-) It would help me to know which key(s) you're talking about on a "standard" (Dos / Windows?) 104-key keyboard (well, I didn't count them, but I'm pretty sure it's 104 keys. The bottom row of my keyboard (the row with the spacebar in it) has keys from left to right: <ctrl> <win*> <alt> <spacebar> <alt> <win*> <command*> <ctrl> win* is a key with no letters but what looks like the Windows logo command* is a key with no letters but a logo that might be intended to depict a menu Which key(s) are you talking about, and what is the (your?) preferred name (or set of names) for that (those) key(s)?
