Magic keys
ShiftL and ShiftR are the left and right shift keys.
CTRL - Alt - Del
A well known combination from PC usage, this sequence restarts MDOS without booting. It is equivalent to calling
BLWP @>0000
in a program run in MDOS.
When in the GPL manager, this combination exits the GPL manager and returns to MDOS.
CTRL - ShiftL - ShiftR
With this combination you can cause a reboot of the system, i.e. the memory is cleared and tested, and MDOS is loaded from disk or harddrive. This is basically the same state as after turning the system on.
When in GPL mode (TI-99 simulation), this combination returns control to the GPL manager.
ShiftL - ShiftR - ESC
Launches the debugger if it has been installed; it causes a
BLWP @>FFFC
and is therefore equivalent to the LOAD interrupt which can be externally triggered.
Alt - PrtSc
Copies the contents of the screen to the printer.
CTRL - C, CTRL - Break
Stops program execution (if interrupts are enabled).
CTRL - S, CTRL - NumLock
Halts screen output.
CTRL - P, CTRL - PrtScr
Starts / Stops logging mode (output is copied to the printer).
