PC and MAC compatible?

General Discussion

I have written a couple of modules using Mac computers and make liberal use of the META key [to the right and left of the space bar]. If someone tries to play one of my modules on a PC will they be able to manage to access these keystrokes?

Thanks in advance.

Meta should correspond to Alt elsewhere.

Thanks for the prompt reply.

Alas I use ALT as well and sometimes in combination with META.

I have read online that the since there are two ALT keys one can be set up or is already set up to correspond to META. Is this true? I have had little to do with PCs for about 8 years so am well out of the loop.

On a standard US keyboard layout, both Alts will act as Meta, I believe.

Thanks. It’s not a big deal but good to know.
