An early typewriter with a backspacer[sic] key.(Blickensderfer Model 7)Although the term "backspace" is the traditional name of the key which steps the carriage back and/or [note 3] deletes the previous character, typically to the left of the cursor, the actual key may be labeled in a variety of ways, for example delete, [1] erase, [note 4] or with a left pointing arrow.

The Teletype Model 33 provided a key labelled RUB OUT to punch this character (after the user backed up the tape using another button), and did not provide a key that produced the Backspace character (BS). Therefore, a number of less-expensive computer systems that used Teletypes used this key (and thus the Delete code) to ignore the previous ...
The Dell XPS 14 (9440) was released in early 2024 and is a 14.5" laptop between the Dell XPS 13 and the XPS 16. It has thinner bezels, a seamless touchpad, and edge-to-edge keyboard with a touch function row, it offers two 14.5" display options, 1920x1200 LCD, or 3200x2000 OLED display, both at a refresh rate of 120Hz.
For example, the key labelled "Backspace" typically produces code 8, "Tab" code 9, "Enter" or "Return" code 13 (though some keyboards might produce code 10 for "Enter"). Many keyboards include keys that do not correspond to any ASCII printable or control character, for example cursor control arrows and word processing functions. The associated ...
To correctly obtain special characters which have decimal code points above 255, another option (not available in Internet Explorer) is to use or type a character's hex equivalent code point first, followed by pressing the Alt+X keys.
A QWERTY keyboard layout with the position of Control, Alt and Delete keys highlighted. Control-Alt-Delete (often abbreviated to Ctrl+Alt+Del and sometimes called the "three-finger salute" or "Security Keys") [1] [2] is a computer keyboard command on IBM PC compatible computers, invoked by pressing the Delete key while holding the Control and Alt keys: Ctrl+Alt+Delete.
In other cases, the Delete key is in its original IBM notebook position of above and to the right of the Backspace key. [clarification needed] Many laptops add rows of smaller keys above the Function key line to add keys on a non-standard size keyboard. On this row of smaller keys, the position of the Delete key is positioned at or near the ...
One example of this continued division of use is the type tool in Adobe Photoshop, where the return key produces a new line while the enter key ends editing mode. Another is Mathematica, where the Return key creates a new line, while the Enter key (or Shift-Return) submits the current command for execution.
