Tips
When INSCHAR inserts a space, text to the right of the character moves
one space to the right. If the insertion of a space causes the text in the
line to exceed the align width, then TEDIT uses auto word wrap (if ON)
to move words to the next line.
Your terminal might have a key labelled CHAR INS. This key inserts a
space and moves the text on the screen to the right by one character.
The CHAR INS key can lose characters off the end of the screen. If
there is text beyond the right edge of the screen that you cannot see,
TEDIT does not shift the text. To shift all the text in a line, use either
the INSCHAR or INSERT CHARACTER command.

INSERT CHARACTER adds a single space at the cursor position, moving
the line one column to the right.
