DELETE
INSERT
HP 2649D Workstation
The DELETE key is used to delete the current character
position of the cursor. If you press SHIFT DELETE, the
entire current line is deleted from the display.
The INSERT key allows you to insert alphanumeric
characters to the left of the cursor. Press this key to
enter the insert mode. The cursor appears within an
inverse video box. You can now type in the characters
you wish to insert. To exit from the insert mode, either
press the INSERT key again or move the cursor from its
current line; the cursor reverts to its normal
appearance. If you press SHIFT INSERT, a blank line is
inserted preceding the current line; the cursor appears
at the first position of the new line.
These keys move the position to the left or right. If
you hold one down, the cursor moves rapidly in that
direction. The cursor wraps around to the next line if a
margin is encountered. For example:
...... Qt
Cursor Positioned at Left Margin
Pressing
G::l Moves Cursor to Previous Line
These keys move the cursor up or down one line from the
current position on the display. Pressing SHIFT CD and
SHIFT CO moves the cursor to the previous and next
display page respectively. The sketch on page 3-25
describes this movement up or down, which is called
scrolling.
The HOME key moves the cursor to the upper left of the
display. When SHIFT CO is pressed, the cursor is moved
to the first character of the display storage area, which
may be on a previous display page.
