three-finger salute
(Or "three-finger salute", Vulcan death grip; from

feature).
On an Amiga this is done with Ctrl/Right Amiga/Left Amiga; on
IBM PCs and many microcomputers it is Ctrl/Alt/Del; on
Suns, L1-A; on some Macintoshes, it is -! Silicon Graphics users are obviously the most
dextrous however, as these machines use the five-finger
combination: Left Shift/Left Ctrl/Left Alt/Keypad Divide/F12.
