\chapter{Messages Keystrokes: Using Messages without the mouse

}
\section{What keystrokes are

}\leftindent{
Messages keystrokes let you use the Messages program from the keyboard without 
using the mouse to point and click at different regions in the Messages 
window.  The keystrokes do not work unless you have turned on the keystroke 
option by choosing \bold{Set Options} from the back menu card in Messages and 
then turning on keystroke commands.


The control (^) key functions work by holding down the control key (Ctrl) and 
then simultaneously pressing the appropriate key.  The key you press while 
holding the control key down can be either upper or lower case, but is written 
in upper case.


The escape (Esc-) key functions work by pressing the Escape key (Esc) and then 
pressing the appropriate key, in sequence.
