When mentioning the Option key, this manual refers to the key marked 'alt' or 'option'. When mentioning the Command key, this manual refers to the key that is marked with an apple or the word 'command' on Apple keyboards or to the key that is marked 'Ctrl' if you are on a Windows or Linux computer. All of these commands can also be chosen from a menu.

To accelerate menu commands in Praat, you can sometimes choose them with the keyboard, sometimes while also pressing the Command key, Option key, or Shift key.
