When IT was trying to sell everyone on WIMP GUI, the standard was WordPerfect. There, you had to memorize the functions of the F1-F12 keys, as well as their shifted (or Control) behavior. The only sure thing was that F1 was HELP.

We were looking for something better--but having no keyboard was the opposite extreme.
