        DOCS FOR USERS

        You can mark text for cutting, copying, and erasing by simply
        clicking and dragging.  Hitting alphanumeric keys replaces the text
        that is highlighted.  Hitting cursor keys moves you to the front or
        end of the highlighted text.

        While you drag to scroll, the farther away from the gadget your
        mouse pointer is, the faster the gadget will scroll.
