2 EDITOR COMMANDS

with LW's keystrokes, a huge number of commands becomes instantly available.

Cursor left
Cursor right
Cursor up
Cursor down
Next tab stop (if in Over-Type Mode)
Start of line
End of line
Previous start of word
Start of next word
Previous start of paragraph
Start of next paragraph
Screen up

Top of screen, then top of file
End of file
2.2 TEXT ENTRY MODES
These commands affect various setting in the editor:
Toggle Insert and Over-type modes. In Insert mode, text after
the cursor is pushed along as you type, and closes up when
you press . In Over-type mode, new text
overwrites existing text. Notice that the operation of the
key differs depending on which mode the editor is in:
in Over-type mode, the key simply skips to the next
tab stop, whereas in Insert mode, inserts spaces up to
the next tab stop.
Toggle upper/lowercase.
Forced control key mode toggle. Allows entry of control codes
without pressing or first.
The current case is saved when you save the configuration
(see later), and becomes the default next time you load the
program.
Uppercase lock.
Toggle inverse video on and off.
