All GKOS characters are presented below. The GKOS reference number is just an index for the key combination. The Key Code is the mathematical value of the key combination when keys 1 to 6 are assumed to have values 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32. (***Table corrected 5 Dec 2002: F6...F16)

(*) Note: In ABC mode, GKOS characters 37 and 38 may be arranged differently according to the language so that the positions of intonation markings (accents) and slashes are swapped on the table if the national keyboard requires using these two intonation markings frequently and if they cannot be managed with the national characters (27 to 30).All modes

Key Code = the value of the key combination when keys 1 to 6 are
considered to have values 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32.
123-ABC This key code toggles between 123 and ABC modesSee also: Special modes and functions
- note that CAPS does not have an effect on the 123-ABC function
In case somone wishes to add, for some special application, two more keys which are for the pinky fingers, they shall be numbered 7 (left bottom) and 8 (right bottom) and their preferred function should be:
Key 7 = SHIFT
Key 8 = SYMB
Both keys 7 and 8 <reserved>
