BASIC Stamp II
Entering & Editing Programs
We’ve tried to make the editor as intuitive as possible: to move up,
press the up arrow; to highlight one character to the right, press shift-
right arrow; etc.
Most functions of the editor are easy to use. Using single keystrokes,
you can perform the following common functions:
• Load, save, and run programs.
• Move the cursor in increments of one character, one word, one
line, one screen, or to the beginning or end of a file.
• Highlight text in blocks of one character, one word, one line, one
screen, or to the beginning or end of a file.
• Cut, copy, and paste highlighted text.
• Search for and/or replace text.
• See how the Stamp IIs memory is being used by your program.
• Identify the version of the BASIC interpreter in your Stamp II.
