On my Apple //e the DELETE Key is to the right of the Reset Button. If you
consider the symmetry of the Apple's Keyboard, it is really the last key on
the right in the top row, and the ESC key balances the DELETE key quite
nicely on the far left of the top row.

But I have a problem of my own. I spent the greater part of the day
searching for a BACKSPACE key on my real Apple //e and so far I haven't
found one. Consequently my code is not completed for my latest masterpiece
and I have just been alerted that supper is now ready...


Naming conventions.

What is called Return on an Apple is called Enter on a PC...

What is called Backspace on a PC is called Delete on an Apple.

The value 127 can be pulled from a PC keyboard by pressing Ctrl-Bksp.
