Arrow keys Moves the cursor one line or column as shown.

BACK SPACE Back one column.

Back one column.

If cursor is in column one, pressing this key moves the cursor to

the last column on the screen. This key also deletes the

previous character if INSERT MODE is on (see CHAR INSERT).

BREAK Interrupts TEDIT commands, like SEARCH and REPLACE.

These keys perform the same operation as an equivalent TEDIT command (from the

terminal rather than from within TEDIT).

The Insert Mode, which is turned on and off with the shifted CHAR INS key, lets you

insert characters at the cursor position (ON) or overwrite characters in your file (OFF).

Only the characters visible on your terminal window are affected.

Certain keys can be used with the control key (labeled CTRL). Pressing these keys,

together with the CTRL key, has the following effects:
