2015.01 History: About Those Modifier Keys

You know that your Mac keyboard has 6 different kinds of modifiers keys, right? In order from top to bottom, left to right:

• caps lock
• shift (⇧)
• fn (function)
• control (ctrl, ^)
• option (opt, alt, ⌥)
• command (cmd, ⌘)

Macworld's Christopher Phin takes us on a little trip down memory lane as to how those modifier keys got to be that way.
