You're really stressing some of the (really) old memory banks...

Try Ctrl-Z. This was often used back in the DOS days.

It may also help to know most of the guys in the Sharp Engineering Dept that developed the pocket computers were Unix guys.

If Ctrl-Z doesn't work, and the Unix guys had some influence, try Ctrl-D (ASCII EOT) as that was the default terminal character to signal EOF when typed at the start of a line on a terminal.

I guess the 'Ctrl' key is the one marked 'カナ' ('KAN' in katakana)?
