Boss key 老板键

A boss key is a special keyboard shortcut¹ used in computer games or other programs to quickly hide the program and possibly display a special screen that appears to be a normal productivity program.

 

Boss key是电脑游戏中使用的一个特殊的快捷键，用来快速隐藏游戏界面并显示正常工作程序的一个特殊界面。

 

This was a fairly common feature in early computer games for personal computers, when most boss keys were used to show dummy² DOS prompts. The use has faded somewhat as modern multitasking operating systems have evolved.

 

“老板键”在早期的电脑游戏中很常见，多数都是用来显示虚拟的DOS提示框。随着后来多任务操作系统的发展，“老板键”的使用也渐渐淡出。
