CHARACTER INSERT
KEYS Character Insert
Character Insert
FUNCTION: This key enables and disables character insert. The
condition of the function is shown on the top line, e.g.
INS:on
When turned off, characters entered overtype existing text.
When turned on, new text is inserted before the cursor
position. This is useful for adding characters to the
middle of a line.
REMARKS: An exception to the above rule is carriage return (Enter).
With insert on, a carriage return is added as with any
other character, causing a break of line if the cursor is
in the middle of the text. W'ith insert off, the carriage
return is only added to the file if it is at the end of the
file, otherwise the cursor is moved non-destructively to
the beginning of the next line,
