6530 Programmer’s Guide
Alt-Ins Places the 6530 in insert mode, which automatically inserts
characters as they are typed.
Ins Exits insert mode if the 6530 is currently in insert mode.
Otherwise, moves all characters (from the current cursor
position to the end of the line) one position to the right and
inserts a space at the cursor. If a character was initially in
the last column of the line, it is discarded.
In protect submode, characters are moved to the end of the
field instead of the end of the line. If the cursor is in a field-
start address (possible only when auto-tab is disabled), no
insert operation occurs.
Del Deletes the character at the current cursor position, moves
all characters (from the cursor to the end of the line) one
position to the left, and inserts a space at the end of the line.
In protect submode, characters are moved from the end of
the field instead of the end of the line. If the cursor is in a
field-start address (possible only when auto-tab is disabled),
no delete operation occurs.
Ctrl-Ins Moves all lines (from the current cursor position to the end
of the page) down one row, blank fills the current line, and
discards the last line of the page. The cursor remains in the
same relative position.
This key can also be defined as a function key with Esc N
sequence. In protect submode, the key is automatically
defined as a function key.
Ctrl-Del Deletes the line containing the cursor, moves all subsequent
lines up one row, and blank fills the bottom line. The cursor
remains in the same relative position.
This key can also be defined as a function key with Esc N
sequence. In protect submode, the key is automatically
defined as a function key.
Alt-2 Erases characters, starting from the current cursor position,
to the end of the line or the end of the field (protect
submode).
