Text Editing Terms
Editor: A program that allows entry and modification of information, then stores it in a

Text: Refers to a sequence of characters and/or lines being edited. The individual
characters are manipulated using the widely accepted American Standard Code

Cursor: A small box on the screen that marks where changes are being made to the text.
