I don't think there's a one size fits all answer to this.

If your UI is touch only, "press" or "tap."

If your UI is mouse only, old-fashioned "click."

If your UI is multi-mode (keyboard, mouse *and* touch), I foresee a long, agonizing series of emails or meetings without a consensus until someone above your pay grade eventually gets tired of it all and makes a "command decision."

Thanks Thorsten and to all for answering my questions about this topic.
Now that the topic has been answered, please indulge me in a little
bit of thread drift.

Which verb do you folks favor when instructing someone to "hit" enter?
Do you say "press", or something else?

Thanks,

Bob
