What are "alpha-num"? How to activate custom action groups?

[Angeltxilon]

This is may be a dummy question, but I do not know what mean "apha1" (for example) in controls of game and, so, I do not know how can use custom action groups, obviously.

Please help.

Thanks in advanced.

It`s the numbers on your keyboard, 1234567890, they are alpha numerical.

Alpha1 just means press 1

As John FX said - alpha[numeric] keys as opposed to the ones on the number pad.

Ouch! I shouldn't have had to google to this thread to figure this out.  May I suggest the description of this as "alpha1" is horribly bad. Abbreviating "alphanumeric" to "alpha" when actually referring to something that is numeric instead of alpha is a lot like abbreviating "yes or no" to "yes" when what you actually mean is the "no" part.
