To get out of stuck SHIFT KEY hp prime emulator on Mac

[tcab]

I just ran across this long standing bug again today and found my notes on how to fix it - thought I'd share.

After using the HP Virtual Prime for a while sometimes the Shift key in hp prime emulator on Mac is stuck down - visually its not apparent, but everything you do on the virtual prime is changed because the shift is 'internally' locked - this can be quite a distressing situation. E.g. If you are in the editor and trying to ESC out, the prime prompts if you want to clear all text instead! I've lost my work several times because of this, and been locked in the program editor with no way to get out.

Solution: hold the mac keyboard Command key down and then double click with the mouse on the HP Virtual Prime Shift key.
