#### Special characters

The following special character strings are supported:

| Text string | Key | Modifier | Notes |
| ------------- | --------- | ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| `{enter}` | Enter | N/A | Will insert a newline character (`<textarea />` only). |
| `{esc}` | Escape | N/A | |
| `{backspace}` | Backspace | N/A | Will delete the previous character. |
| `{shift}` | Shift | `shiftKey` | Does **not** capitalize following characters. |
| `{ctrl}` | Control | `ctrlKey` | |
| `{alt}` | Alt | `altKey` | |
| `{meta}` | OS | `metaKey` | |

> **A note about modifiers:** Modifier keys (`{shift}`, `{ctrl}`, `{alt}`,
> `{meta}`) will activate their corresponding event modifiers for the duration
> of type command. Keys are released in the same sequence that they were invoked
> at the end of typing.
