what-happens-when#the-g-key-is-pressed

The outcome of pressing the "g" key varies based on the context in which it's pressed.

For instance:

In a text editor, pressing "g" simply inserts the letter "g" at the current cursor position.
In a web browser with a text field selected, pressing "g" inputs the letter "g" into the field.
When using keyboard shortcuts, the effects of pressing "g" can differ based on the application or operating system. For example, in some applications, pressing "g" followed by "g" might move the cursor to the top of the document.
Ultimately, the result of pressing the "g" key is determined by the specific software in use and any configured keyboard shortcuts or customizations.
