LOOKING AT THE
KEYBOARD
You can INSERTand DELETE letters and numbers
from the line you are typing with this key.
When you press this key by itself, the typed char
acter immediately to the left of the cursor disap
pears, and the cursor moves to where the missing
character was.
To open up space to insert letters and numbers, type
this key along with >SHifT^. When you insert space
in the middle of a line, the line to the right of the cur
sor moves further to the right.
The INST/DEL key saves a lot of time when you want
to edit or change what you've typed.

your screen stays the same.
