Backspace on a typewriter? I thought that was physically impossible?
It’s just what is says on the tin: a space that goes back. :·)
What would computer keyboard delete keys be called without typewriters? Forward delete and backward delete? Delback, delfront? :D
That’s exactly what they’re called on a Mac. :·)
I found three different types of Apple Keyboards! I have the first one with no name for the “backward delete” key and I always called it delete or backspace, and the one on the left “delete forward”. The second one seems to be in favor of “delete” and “delete forward” too.pic.twitter.com/6fmv2MYvYV
And the last one is ⌦ and ⌫ — “call them what you want”. :P
Here are some official names: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201236
Oh cool, they call them “delete” and “forward delete” too! I didn't know there are Control- shortcuts! I wish there were more of them, they seem to be pretty useful. Especially the Control + T one.pic.twitter.com/wGdN810KQK
