I can slash but I have no knife, I can dash but I have no legs, I can pound but I have no hammer, I can star but I have no stage. What am I?

Why this works

This riddle plays with the various functions of a keyboard, using clever wordplay to connect verbs with their corresponding keys. For example, "slash" refers to the forward slash key (/) on a keyboard, "dash" relates to the hyphen (-), "pound" is another name for the hashtag key (#), and "star" refers to the asterisk key (*). Each line highlights a key function or symbol, showcasing how a keyboard can perform these actions without having the physical tools typically associated with them!
