- : abandon your changes
- move the cursor within the character string
- and : move the cursor directly to the beginning or the
end of the string
- : delete the character at the cursor position

- insertion (default): the cursor takes the form of a blinking line or
- overwrite: the cursor takes the form of a blinking block.
